GitHub Classroom Repository Access Issue for Project 2 and Assignments

Written on 15.01.2026 10:07 by Alexander Liggesmeyer

Due to an issue on GitHub's side, some of you may not get immediate access to your assignment repository after accepting a GitHub Classroom assignment. Instead you see a page saying "Repository access issue". Here's how to resolve this:

After you accept an assignment, GitHub does send you an invitation email to the repository. You must accept this invitation before you can access your repository.

What you should do

1. Check the email address linked to your GitHub account for a repository invitation.

2. Accept the invitation from the email to gain access to your assignment repository.

If you cannot find the invitation email

If you do not see the invitation email, you can still accept it manually by visiting your repository link in your browser:

https://github.com/fuzzing2526/2526-assignment-09-[YourGitHubUsername]/

or

https://github.com/fuzzing2526/project-2-[YourGitHubUsername]/

Example

If your GitHub username is 'ExampleUser', visit:

https://github.com/fuzzing2526/2526-assignment-09-ExampleUser/

or

https://github.com/fuzzing2526/project-2-ExampleUser/
