Cause

La chiave privata deve essere creata con RSA e deve essere in formato PEM.

Resolution

Assicurarsi che la chiave privata sia in formato PEM.
Per esempio:

# file /root/.ssh/id_rsa
/root/.ssh/id_rsa: PEM RSA private key



# cat /root/.ssh/id_rsa
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Nel caso in cui il tipo di file sia diverso, convertirlo in un file PEM o creare la chiave ssh utilizzando il comando. 
ssh-keygen -m pem -t rsa
