Describe the problem/error/question

Added my ipv4 address to host, port 22, username, private key (copied from sudo cat /home/n8n_user/.ssh/id_rsa) and added passphrase.

i am using droplet digital ocean, ubuntu. have firewall, ipv6, and vpc configured too

I have also added the respective public key to digital ocean dashboard as ssh key.

What is going wrong and how can I troubleshoot it?

What is the error message (if any)?

Hey @pooria,

You have no host or username set so I would start there unless you removed that. If you did remove that it will likely be down to your ssh configuration or the permission on the authorized_keys file for the user on your host.

@Jon lol I had added username and host just removed them from the screenshot.

And it was an ssh config error.

I restarted my ssh and it worked!!
