Mup Setup and Deploy fail - All configured authentication methods failed

Hey, I’ve spent hours trying to deploy my app to my DigitalOcean Droplet. I keep getting this error:

Started TaskList: Setup Docker
[138.197.207.118] - Setup Docker
events.js:183
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

I’ve tried using pem + password in my mup file, and without, same error.

My setup is Mac Sierra (latest) Latest Mup version Latest Meteor (1.7)

Here’s my mup file (edited out sensitive info):

module.exports = {
    servers: {
        one: {
            host: 'my-ip',
            username: 'david-admin',
            opts: {
                port: 2222,
            },
        },
    },

    app: {
        // TODO: change app name and path
        name: 'techstacker',
        path: '../',

        servers: {
            one: {},
        },

        buildOptions: {
            serverOnly: true,

            executable: 'meteor',
        },

        env: {
            // TODO: Change to your app's url
            // If you are using ssl, it needs to start with https://
            ROOT_URL: 'https://mywebsite.com',
            MONGO_URL: 'my-external-mongodb',
        },

        docker: {
            // change to 'abernix/meteord:base' if your app is using Meteor 1.4 - 1.5
            image: 'zodern/meteor:root',
        },

        // Show progress bar while uploading bundle to server
        // You might need to disable it on CI servers
        enableUploadProgressBar: true,
    },




    proxy: {
        // comma-separated list of domains your website
        // will be accessed at.
        // You will need to configure your DNS for each one.
        domains: 'mydomain.com',
        ssl: {
            // TODO: disable if not using SSL
            forceSSL: true,
            // Enable let's encrypt to create free certificates
            letsEncryptEmail: '[e-mail]',
        },
    },
};

I have no clue where to go from here, any suggestions? 😃

I struggled for many hours to resolve the mup ssh connection issues to a new AWS EC2 Ubuntu 22 server (within a new VPC). I was able to ssh from the commandline, but mup ssh kept failing with “All configured authentication methods failed”.

I found the answer here which is to allow ssh-rsa key types for openssh on the new server.

• Open file /etc/ssh/sshd_config
• Add the line PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes=+ssh-rsa to the end
• Restart the service sshd with sudo systemctl restart sshd.service

I also struggled a little with setting up the VPC for internet access, and the linked article was very helpful to troubleshoot.

Hope it helps someone.

At this point I can deploy without problems if I do the following before mup setup and mup deploy:

ssh-add -K /Users/davidt/.ssh/my-app_id

If I don’t do the above, I get this on mup setup:

Started TaskList: Setup Docker
[138.197.207.118] - Setup Docker
events.js:183
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

I have no clue why I have to do this, but if anyone has some advice, I’d appreciate it! 😃
