Error saying Error reading ssh key when trying to create the cluster

Question

I'm trying to create a cluster,

I've created a hosted domain zone, an s3 bucket as well

I'm using the following command to create the cluster

kops create cluster --cloud=aws --zones=us-east-2a --name=<name> --dns-zone=<zone_name> --dns private

Its throwing the following error:

Error reading SSH key

Answer 1

You need to create the public key of its own as the cluster does not communicate with any other key. Follow these steps Nilesh to create the public key

1. cd .ssh
2. ssh-keygen
3. Set the location as id_rsa
4. it'll promp for a password, if you want the password, eneter the password or else just press ENETR and the public key will be created.
