ssh: handshake failed

[joshuacox]

After cp container-linux-config.yml.example container-linux-config.yml
and
make container-linux

I get:

==> qemu: Waiting for SSH to become available...
==> qemu: Error waiting for SSH: ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [keyboard-interactive none password], no supported methods remain
==> qemu: Deleting output directory...
Build 'qemu' errored: ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [keyboard-interactive none password], no supported methods remain

==> Some builds didn't complete successfully and had errors:
--> qemu: ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [keyboard-interactive none password], no supported methods remain

==> Builds finished but no artifacts were created.
make: *** [Makefile:15: builds/container-linux-stable.qcow2] Error 1

I also tried adding in keys to the config:

passwd:
  users:
    - name: core
      ssh_authorized_keys:
        - "ssh-ed25519 AAA...."

But I don't seem to be having any success? Am I missing something?

Yeah you need to put your public key in there. Is that that key you put in there?

[joshuacox]

yep it sure is, I also tried with an rsa pub (just in case there was some issue with the ed25519 pub) as well (both of the private keys still reside in my .ssh dir). And I am currently logging into some container linux VMs that I created using another method. The other method works fine, but I was considering extending it using your packer build.

Bummer. I'll have a go at running this again myself. Haven't used it since putting it up so maybe something has changed.

hello guys, tested myself and same problem as @joshuacox

Does anyone is able to work with packer and coreos in anyway ?

thank guys
