SSH: Could not open a connection to your authentication agent

Posted on August 7, 2016

Hello

I accessed my server with ssh one time on from Ubuntu16.04

But when tried to connect next time I goy this error “Could not open a connection to your authentication agent” after executing $ eval ssh-agent -s $ ssh-add <path_to_private_key>

So I cant connect with ssh, and I don’t have login or password. How can I get at least a login and password to access the server?

Please, help :) I am new to Ubuntu
