Eclipse - Failed to write credentials for 'your git repo URL' to secure store No password provided.

Issue

When I pushed my code to GitHub and provided the correct username and password, I got the following error message:

Failed to write credentials for 'https://github.com/xuanngo2001/android-sharedpreferences-basic.git' to secure store
No password provided.

However, the push was successfully completed, but this annoying popup message is still showing.

Solution

  1. From your Eclipse menu bar, open Window > Preferences.
  2. Navigate to General > Security > Secure Storage.
  3. Uncheck Linux Integration (64-bit).
  4. Click on Apply and Close button.
