When trying to use SSH2 to install or update plugins, etc…, WordPress tells me (in Site Health)
Unable to connect to the filesystem. Please confirm your credentials.
When I try to install a plugin, I get the error message
Installation failed: Public and Private keys incorrect for username
Here’s the thing. I put together a php app to test php-ssh2, and all seems to work (see https://github.com/libssh2/libssh2/issues/1392#issuecomment-2123731614). So I’m down to WordPress, but I get no errors in the log.
Here’s the relevant piece of my wp-config.php file
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true );
define( 'SCRIPT_DEBUG', true );
/* Add any custom values between this line and the "stop editing" line. */
define('FS_METHOD', 'ssh2');
define( 'FTP_BASE', '/var/www/html/domain/public_html/' );
define( 'FTP_CONTENT_DIR', '/var/www/html/domain/public_html/wp-content/' );
define( 'FTP_PLUGIN_DIR ', '/var/www/html/domain/public_html/plugins/' );
define('FTP_PUBKEY','/home/username/.ssh/id_ed25519_wordpress.pub');
define('FTP_PRIKEY','/home/username/.ssh/id_ed25519_wordpress');
define('FTP_USER','username');
#define('FTP_PASS','');
define('FTP_HOST','xx.xx.xxx.xxx:12345');
#define( 'FTP_SSL', true );And here are the WP info
