That means that there is a disconnect between what you told ssh in ~/.ssh/config
and what gerrit knows

For instance, did you tell gerrit (in your Setting on gerrit's web)
what is your username (that must match the username you set in
~/.ssh/config for logerrit)
did you place you ublic ssh key in gerrit (again in Stting)... did you
do it correclty (cut-and-paste cand sometime mess up things)
is the IdentityFile in the logerrit section in ~/.ssh/config point to
the private key assocaited with the public key you uploaded in you
gerrit profile ?
did you forget the Port 29418 in ~/.ssh/config ?
