Action fails at Execute Over SSH: mkdir -p /github/home/docker-deployment/stacks || true

[alvarolloret]

I can0t manage to get after the Execute Over SSH: mkdir -p /github/home/docker-deployment/stacks || true....

This is my action:

      - name: Deploy to Docker swarm
        uses: wshihadeh/docker-deployment-action@v1
        with:
          remote_docker_host: ${{ secrets.HOST_MANAGER }}
          ssh_private_key: ${{ secrets.SSH_PRIVATE_KEY }}
          ssh_public_key: ${{ secrets.SSH_PUBLIC_KEY }}
          deployment_mode: docker-swarm
          copy_stack_file: true
          stack_file_name: docker-compose.prod.yaml
          args: docker stack deploy --compose-file $FILE --log-level debug --host $HOST

this is my output:

I can't see where I'm failing.... any help :)

1- no need for this line

args: docker stack deploy --compose-file $FILE --log-level debug --host $HOST

2- make sure that you provided the correct values for ssh_private_key, ssh_public_key and remote_docker_host

[alvarolloret]

Hello @leaniosci,

I've made sure the three values are set correctly, removed the args value and still getting the same error:

Registering SSH keys...
Agent pid 11
Identity added: /github/home/.ssh/id_rsa (/github/home/.ssh/id_rsa)

Execute Over SSH: mkdir -p ~//stacks || true
load pubkey "/github/home/.ssh/id_rsa": invalid format
Warning: Permanently added 'xxx,xxxx' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.
docker-compose.yml: No such file or directory

It still seems I get invalid format, but I've tried changing to new keys in the server, updating the price key to RSA format, using the public key from known hosts, and still not working. Coult it be that the file name of the key is not the same? I use another filename: id_rsa_key instead of id_rsa.

I've been trying it for several days, but still not getting to it....

I am getting the same error. I am setting the stack_file_name param with a custom file name.

FYI, if anyone is having issues with the above error Execute Over SSH: mkdir -p /github/home/docker-deployment/stacks || true, this worked for me:

We have 2 parts: our local machine and the remote server.

• SSH_PUBLIC_KEY needs the known_host value associated with the server's IP, ie. `if my server's IP address is 120.20.20.1 then I have to look for an entry on the file with this value. Look for it in your local machine.
• The crucial part is to copy the ssh public key (this key is in our local machine) to the server. You can do it with this command: ssh-copy-id user@host. Using our previous case, ssh-copy-id [email protected].

After implementing these steps, everything works again.

I have the same error, if I used to ssh-copy function a get fail build without error

[elhe26]

@strazhnyk did you try ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@host from your local machine?
