Setting up SSH on linux requires ssh keys to be copied to root folder #471

Closed sanketraut closed 8 years ago

sanketraut commented 8 years ago

While setting the openshift repository on my ubuntu linux machine, I had to use sudo for rhc setup. That caused Openshift to search for ssh private keys inside my root folder instead of /user/.ssh folder and was giving permission issues while cloning a repository. This is not mentioned in the article by default and should be made clear while installing client tools. I had copied the .ssh folder from my user directory to /root directory and the rhc commands started working fine after that.

As the rhc setup utility has been used under the root user, roots' ssh keys were searched for & the root's public ssh key uploaded to OpenShift. The Ubuntu OpenShift Online getting started guide explicitly mentions sudo where needed. It looks like the guide does not require updating, so I'm gonna close this issue.

If the rhc setup did not work correctly for you when running under your user, please elaborate the issue in more details using of the technical support channels offered here. Issues reported in this repo pertain only to the OpenShift Online Developer Center itself.
