SFTP no working with PHPSTORM

Posted on August 31, 2014

Hello, I have a droplet with SSH key. My SSH and SFTP access work perfectly with Mac OSX Terminal and Transmit.
But for some reason SFTP does not work with PHPSTORM :

Error
Connection to 'ip_address' failed
SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT: 2 Too many authentication failures for root

Thanks @cosminflo. Had the same issue issue using Laravel Homestead. Simply retyped my SSH password and hit Apply and BOOM!!! Fixed :-)

Just regenerate with correct format:

-Open your private key in PuTTYGen -Top menu “Conversions”->”Export OpenSSH key”. -Save the new OpenSSH key when prompted. -Restart machine maybe needed (in my case).
