NaCL plugin exited with status code 255 - No file/ directory

[Steven von Hofsten]

Hello everyone!

I recently tried to connect through the secure shell but have hit a pretty solid wall. Here is the debug and the end product after attempting a connection:

Connection established.
debug1: getpeername failed: No such file or directory
debug1: identity file /.ssh/id_rsa type 0
debug1: key_load_public: No such file or directory
debug1: identity file /.ssh/id_rsa-cert type -1
debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_7.6
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
NaCl plugin exited with status code 255.

I'm not a very technical person so the fact that I got this far already excites me. How do I meet the requirements? ie. creating that key_load_public file/ getpeername. Also, what does the

"type 0" say about the key that I use?

Thanks for any replies!

that looks normal.  you don't have any keys locally, so they don't exist.  the error message that matters is:

ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

you'll need to read your server's logs to figure out why it closed the connection.

Hi Steven,

I got same error. when you launch your instance without opting for keypair, it does not create ssh directory due to which it gives exit code 255. What you need to do here is either you need to create directories manually which  you cannot do since connection is not established. You have to create a new keypair and import it in this instance and then reboot it. I think that would work.
