Bitbucket pipelines error Load key /root/.ssh/pipelines_id

[Ramondrio Imanuel]

Hi,

I want to test deploy to our production instances in google cloud platform.

When pipelines step run, it always shows error Load key /root/.ssh/pipelines_id : error in libcrypto.

user@emote_host : permission denied (publickey)

Is there any solution for this?

Thanks

Hi Ramondrio,

This specific error (Load key /root/.ssh/pipelines_id : error in libcrypto) usually shows when there is a problem with the SSH key's format.

I would suggest checking the following:

• I see that you are using the variable SSH_KEY in the scp-deploy pipe. Did you base-64 encode the private SSH key locally and did you pass the base-64 encoded value in the variable?
• Check the private key file locally and see if it is perhaps corrupted or if it is missing a new line at the end. In case it is missing a new line at the end, add it, save the file, then base-64 encode it again and add the new value in the variable.

Kind regards,
Theodora
