Invalid base ssh key Error message when adding ssh key on droplet creation.
I have created a public and private key using Puttygen. I added public key to digital ocean. I then create a droplet and select the saved ssh key. When I then select to create the droplet I get an error message.
The error message is “ Invalid Base SSH Key”.
Can someone advise please?
Thank you
Colin

Don’t save the public key via putty(can save private key), copy/paste it from the box. https://i.imgur.com/a3TRWNF.png This is what u have to copy. You can save it later to a textfile.
