Trying to connect to database from Sequel PRO (Error)

Hi all,

Im trying to connect to the database on my server using Sequel PRO but I get an error.

I can connect using ssh on the console, and then typing "mysql -uuser -p". That is working fine.

What can be the problem?

This is the message that I get:

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ WARNING: UNPROTECTED PRIVATE KEY FILE! @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Permissions 0644 for '/Users/sergiogregorutti/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' are too open. It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by others. This private key will be ignored. bad permissions: ignore key: /Users/sergiogregorutti/.ssh/id_rsa.pub debug1: No more authentication methods to try. Permission denied (publickey).

Thanks @mikebarwick for your reply.

I made that change but now says that I need to insert the password for the SSH key "id_rsa.pub".

I dont know what is the password of the key..

You cannot recover a lost SSH key passphase. You will need to regenerate your key pair.

I was having the same issue, because i was selecting the .pub file instead of the correspondent file same name without the .pub, selecting the file without .pub worked for me.
