Remote Server Setup problem

Hello :slight_smile: ,

I’m trying to fix a problem with remote server step with Trellis documentation :

I made all configuration with Trellis but I still have the same problem with this command : ansible-playbook server.yml -e env=production.

I’m using Debian 9.4.

I made all configuration on production folder and add my SSH Key on my Github account.

Here is my error feedback after adding -vvvv to my last command for checking mistakes :

System info:

}

Did you have any solutions about this ?

Thank you in advance.

Connection timed out

That’s a connection issue and not an SSH key issue. Is this working yet? If I try and SSH into your server, I get the expected “Permission denied (publickey).”.

Hi,
I’ve got the same issue as you now :

}

I made some configuration before this issue inside this file -> /etc/ssh/ssh_config, because as we see at the top of my mistakes, system begin to read configuration data in this file (just uncomment some features).

But I think the mistakes is elsewhere, I don’t understand exactly what my execution process do.

If you have more ideas, I would appreciate your answer :slight_smile:

Hi,
The error in the message you pasted is…

Permission denied (publickey).

Make sure your keys are set up, added to all the servers you need to communicate with, and forwarded in your shell.

Make sure you’ve read the Trellis documentation pages on remote server setup, and SSH keys:
