Cannot login to droplet using ssh

I am having an issue connecting to my droplet over ssh.

Whenever I try to loging in using ssh. I get and error:

root@xxx.xxx.xxx.30: Permission denied (publickey). I copied my public key to the digital ocean server and then tried to login.

Still I get the same thing.

I tried “ssh —v root@xxx.xxx.xxx.30” and get tons outoutput that I don’t understand.

The only thing I see in the logs that looks suspicious is this:

debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_dsa debug3: no such identity: /root/.ssh/id_dsa: No such file or directory debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_ecdsa debug3: no such identity: /root/.ssh/id_ecdsa: No such file or directory debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_ed25519 debug3: no such identity: /root/.ssh/id_ed25519: No such file or directory debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_xmss debug3: no such identity: /root/.ssh/id_xmss: No such file or directory debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method debug1: No more authentication methods to try.

I don’t have the files “/root/.ssh/id_dsa” , but I do have “/root/.ssh/id_rsa”

It seems to me that digital ocean is expecting a dsa style key and I only have a rsa style key???
