Unable to SFTP in via Filezilla.

Posted on June 22, 2017

Hi,

I am a total noob but (thanks to this forum) I managed to set up my first droplet, install everything I needed, set up a key pair and and connect and upload via FileZilla.

So I was expecting my second stab at this to be a piece of cake…

Wrong!

Having already created my RSA key pair for droplet 1, I simply ticked the SSH Key box when I created droplet 2.

Via the terminal, everything works fine - I can SSH/SFTP in no problem.

But when connecting through FileZilla I just get ‘Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey)’.

Clearly I’ve skipped a vital step this time round but after four hours of Googling I am no nearer figuring out what the heck that is.

Can anyone help?
