I think what needs to be done, is to change the url for the latest stable "fork" of the original repository, it looks like it went private

[yohanesc1987]

Same here...

[w-e-w]

if anyone is looking for a fork, I have a fork under my account
https://github.com/w-e-w/stablediffusion.git

I also made a pr to update it on the dev branch

• update stable_diffusion_repo url #17207

Solution:

1. go to stable_diffusion\stable-diffusion-webui\repositories\
2. remove folder stable-diffusion-stability-ai
3. use git bash in repositories\ - git clone https://github.com/Stability-AI/generative-models.git stable-diffusion-stability-ai
4. run webui-user.bat

I believe you have read

• fix "Couldn't clone Stable Diffusion" or "Username for 'https://github.com':" #17212

what part are you having trouble understanding

---

if you have already figured out is there anything I can add to the post I made to make it more clearer

[tysoncung]

I see you're hitting error 128 with the missing Stability-AI repository. This is a widespread issue right now - the original repo appears to be down (404).

The error happens because webui tries to clone https://github.com/Stability-AI/stablediffusion.git/ which no longer exists.

As a quick workaround, you can:

1. Edit around line 412
2. Change the repo URL to point to a fork or mirror
3. Or comment out the git_clone line for stable-diffusion-stability-ai temporarily

The maintainers will likely need to update the default repo URL. Keep an eye on the repo for an official fix!

this essentially is a solved issue
I have written a detailed explanation on how to fix it

• see fix "Couldn't clone Stable Diffusion" or "Username for 'https://github.com':" #17212
