Error: EVP_PKEY_sign: passed a null parameter #899

Expected behavior

To be able to connect to a server via a ECDSA ssh key

Actual behavior

When using an ecdsa key Ive generated I can ssh to my test server without problem, but the snippet of code below fails using the same key & user. When I use an rsa key and connect to the same server the code works.

System configuration

Example App

require 'net/ssh'

Net::SSH.start(
  'myserver', 
  'user',
  :keys => [ "~/.ssh/id_ecdsa" ],
 ) do |session|
   session.exec "uptime"
end
