SSH Service Connection - Cannot parse privateKey: Unsupported key format
I'm trying to setup a release pipeline to copy files over to a linux server vs ssh. However when I try to run the release I get the following error during the copy task:
Failed to connect to remote machine. Verify the SSH service connection details. Error: Cannot parse privateKey: Unsupported key format.
I've tried generating the key multiple times with ssh-keygen -t rsa and uploaded or copied the contents of the private key directly into the Private Key text area in the service connection. All to no avail.
It seems like I'm missing something simple as I can't find much mention of others having issue with this.
