PyCharm Remote Development via SSH, Failed to connect to IDE backend: invalid credentials.

Posted on January 18, 2023

Hi,

I’m trying to connect to my remote DigitalOcean server using SSH on PyCharm, the OS is Ubuntu 22.04, and I got this error

SSH Connection Check Failed Failed to connect to IDE backend: Invalid credentials

But I tried on my Terminal, I could connect to my server successfully.

Does anybody have any hints by any chance? Thank you very much!

Kind regards, Xi
