Robo 3T not work on Ubuntu 20.04

Posted on May 22, 2020

I can not connect with my MongoDB from my Macbook.

Versions on my machine:

  • macOS Catalina 10.15.4
  • Robo 3T 1.2.1

Versions on Digitalocean machine:

  • Ubuntu 20.04
  • MongoDB shell version v3.6.8

I am trying to connect with ssh. I check ‘Use ssh tunnel’. I add the IP address with the port 22. With the user root and I add the private key from my machine.

I have another machine with Ubuntu 16.04.6 and I can connect.

I’m update robo3t to version 1.4 it work fine

Hi there @mikelgarciaurbina,

What is the exact error that you get when you try to connect?

Also, have you tried following the steps from this tutorial here on how to configure remote access:

Regards, Bobby

Hi @bobbyiliev,

The error is when trying to connect from ssh:

Info: Creating SSH tunnel to ID_ADDRESS:22… Error: Resource temporarily unavailable. Error when starting up SSH session: -8 . (Error #35)

I tried to configure ufw. I tried to disable ufw. I tried to configure nginx. I tried to disable nginx.

I never have a ssh connection from robo 3t. But I can access it from the terminal with the ssh command.

I don’t know what else to try.
