SSH Tunnel Permission denied

See original GitHub issue

System information:

Ubuntu 19.10
DBeaver version - 6.3.2

Connection specification:

Database name and version - MySQL (10.1.41-MariaDB)
Driver name - MySQL8+
Do you use tunnels or proxies (SSH, SOCKS, etc)? Yes

Describe the problem you’re observing:

When I try to connect to my server via SSH tunnel, it gives me a ‘Permission denied’ error. The ssh key works fine when using the ssh command via terminal, and also works in MySQL Workbench. Permissions are 600. See attached screenshots.

Steps to reproduce, if exist:

Choose SSH Tunnel in connection settings.
Enter hostname, port and ssh username.
Enter path of SSH key eg. /usr/share/dbeaver/id_rsa
Click connect.

Include any warning/errors/backtraces from the logs

Cannot establish tunnel
  java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/share/dbeaver/id_rsa (Permission denied)
  java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/share/dbeaver/id_rsa (Permission denied)
    /usr/share/dbeaver/id_rsa (Permission denied)
    /usr/share/dbeaver/id_rsa (Permission denied)

Guys, I had the same problem on Ubuntu 20.04, so I needed to change the permissions of the dbeaver application as the image: Screenshot from 2021-02-08 13-10-55

If someone want to use ssh keys with snap install, put the private_key on the snap directory - on ubuntu: /home/your_user_dir_name/snap/dbeaver-ce/.ssh. So, the dbeaver installation can read the key. It worked for me. 😉
