Deploying a Meteor app with MUP to a droplet
As are many others, I am trying to deploy a Meteor app to my Digital Ocean droplet using MUP, although I seem to be one of the few getting stuck at ```mup setup```.
I have configured an SSH key pair for my droplet, and can login remotely from my Mac terminal. I have also created another user (aside from root) and disabled root access (which may be the source of my problem?). No password is needed to establish a connection with my droplet as the user via my SSH key pair.
When using ```mup setup``` it fails when trying to install Node from the beginning of the process due to permissions:
```
[128.199.143.49] ✘ Installing Node.js: FAILED
-----------------------------------STDERR-----------------------------------
Warning: Permanently added '128.199.143.49' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied (publickey,password).
-----------------------------------STDOUT-----------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
```
here is the mup.json info for "servers":
```
{
"host": "128.199.143.49",
"username": "user1",
//"password": "pw"
// or pem file (ssh based authentication)
"pem": "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
}
```
If I try to run ```mup setup``` as root, I get prompted for a password, even though I have removed the password:
```

Before I removed the password, I tried ```mup setup``` as root with the password and was unsuccessful.
If there is any other information that I can provide that would help, please let me know.
Here is my mup.json file for good measure:
```
{
// Server authentication info
"servers": [
{
"host": "128.199.143.49",
"username": "user1",
//"password": "pw"
// or pem file (ssh based authentication)
"pem": "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
}
],

"nodeVersion": "3.9.6",
// Install PhantomJS in the server
"setupPhantom": true,

},
// Meteor Up checks if the app comes online just after the deployment
// before mup checks that, it will wait for no. of seconds configured below

}
```
Thanks!
