I'm creating an app server with forge. Everything is fine but I can't seem to connect to the database using the 'Database Connection URL'. It keeps prompting me for the ssh private key password, which I leave blank as my ssh key doesn't have one.
I can ssh into the server using the ssh pub key uploaded to forge, so no idea why this does not work. I use multiple ssh keys for different GitHub accounts and have tried manually choosing the correct private key, but still no luck.
Any suggestions would be a great help
ok, it looks like Ed25519 ssh keys are not supported. (at least in terms of accessing mysql). I uploaded an RSA key to forge and used that key to connect successfully. Hope this can help somebody save a day I've just wasted trying to figure it out.
