Hello,

I can ssh to my server from the terminal, I am not asked for password or passphrase.
But the command mup setup throws the following error:

        throw new Error('Encrypted private key detected, but no passphrase given');
        ^

Please help, I stuck for 2 days.

Thanks.

Yes, I have followed the instructions.

Hmm… you could generate a new key to use so you’re sure it has no passphrase?
Then add the public key to the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file so the server will accept it

Thanks, I will try that.

It works now that I have removed pem: ‘~/.ssh/id_rsa’ from mup.js
