ssh won't load key (error in libcrypto or Permission denied (publickey)) but ssh-add can load key
Problem:
Key can be added by ssh-agent and ssh worked fine
eval $(ssh-agent -s)
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
ssh -T [email protected]
but without ssh-agent, ssh won't load the key, even if key path is specified in .ssh/config
ssh -T [email protected]
[email protected]: Permission denied (publickey).
ssh -Tv [email protected]
debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_ed25519
Load key "/root/.ssh/id_ed25519": error in libcryptoSolution:
Check key file is in Unix EOL format and key file is ended with a newline.
The last line should be a blank line, not -----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----
