Jenkins ERROR: Error fetching remote repo 'origin'

Question

I'm getting the below error ERROR: Error fetching remote repo 'origin' when building a Jenkins job and Build gets failed. But previously this Jenkins job used to work properly and after sometime when I tried to build the same job without changing any configurations I have received that error.

ERROR: Error fetching remote repo 'origin'

So I think this might be an authentication problem. So my question is how to resolve this?

I have tried updating the personal access token, using an account with full access to the repo but still got the error.
