In case it helps someone:
Just had the Error loading key "(stdin)": invalid format error and solved by adding a line break at the end of the variable in GitLab's UI

Hi. I've written a SSH helper for .gitlab-ci.yml.
Check it out : https://gitlab.com/x4v13r/gitlab-ci

Just include: it to your .gitlab-ci.yml and then you can go with:

ssh_run root myhostname $MYHOST_PKEY "touch foo; cp foo bar; ls -al; rm foo bar; ls -al"

@amatiash i followed your method but i got the following response

Running hooks in /etc/ca-certificates/update.d...
done.
$ mkdir -p ~/.ssh
$ echo "$SSH_PRIVATE_KEY" | tr -d '\r' > ~/.ssh/id_rsa
$ chmod 700 ~/.ssh/id_rsa
$ eval $(ssh-agent -s)
Agent pid 3067
$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Enter passphrase for /root/.ssh/id_rsa: ERROR: Job failed: exit code 1

Why does it request for passphrase?

ALTELMA · 2019-01-04T10:49:01Z

So now it fixes or not?

skyrim61 · 2019-01-16T06:27:35Z

echo ${ID_RSA_DEVELOP} > id_rsa
now id_rsa file is one line,
run this command to check , openssl rsa -in id_rsa -text -noout
output unable to load Private Key

skyrim61 · 2019-01-16T06:45:12Z

我解决这个问题:

echo ${ID_RSA_DEVELOP} > id_rsa
此时, id.pub 文件格式为1行, job运行时, 报出密钥文件出错
此时, 我更改如下:
echo "${ID_RSA_DEVELOP}" > id_rsa
问题得到解决
cat ~/.ssh/id.pub , 格式正确

yo, it looks like the ssh key you created to use was created with a password, you might want to create a new ssh key that doesn't use a password. It is recommended that you don't use a password for SSH keys for server communication because it will error out the process since you can't put the password in manually when it ask for it when Gitlab's runner process is going. I had this issue a few weeks ago; so this is why I am suggesting that to you.

willcooley · 2019-02-02T13:11:23Z

this worked for me:
`

 deploy:

   image: docker:stable

     - services: docker/dind

   stage: deploy

   script:

     - echo "$RELEASE_IMAGE"

     - 'which ssh-agent || ( apk --update add openssh-client )'

     - eval $(ssh-agent -s)

     - mkdir -p ~/.ssh

     - echo "$SERVER_PRIVATE_KEY" | tr -d '\r' > ~/.ssh/id_rsa

     - chmod 700 ~/.ssh/id_rsa

     - eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

     - ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

     - ssh-keyscan -H 'YOUR_IP_ADDRESS' >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts

     - ssh-keyscan YOUR_IP_ADDRESS | sort -u - ~/.ssh/known_hosts -o ~/.ssh/known_hosts

     - '[[ -f /.dockerinit ]] && echo -e "Host *\n\tStrictHostKeyChecking no\n\n" > ~/.ssh/config'

`

subhakant0 · 2019-03-30T06:44:54Z

If you need to enter the password, then you have to. I found a way how to do that.

before_script:
    - 'which ssh-agent || ( apt-get update -y && apt-get install openssh-client -y )'
    - 'which sshpass || ( apt-get update -y && apt-get install sshpass -y )'
    - mkdir -p ~/.ssh
    - echo "$SSH_PRIVATE_KEY" | tr -d '\r' > ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    - chmod 700 ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    - eval $(ssh-agent -s)
    - ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    - ssh-keyscan -H 'gitlab.com' >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts
    - ssh-keyscan gitlab.com | sort -u - ~/.ssh/known_hosts -o ~/.ssh/known_hosts
    - rm -rf .git
    - '[[ -f /.dockerenv ]] && echo -e "Host *\n\tStrictHostKeyChecking no\n\n" > ~/.ssh/config'
  script:
    - sshpass -p "<your password goes here>" ssh  username@hostname "your commands"

I used sshpass

etarndt · 2019-04-11T14:32:50Z

I generated ssh keys that didn't need a password so I used that code above without sshpass, but am receiving this issue:

Warning: Permanently added the ECDSA host key for IP address '##.##.###.##' to the list of known hosts.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied (publickey,password).

Code:

 - mkdir -p ~/.ssh
 - echo "$SSH_PRIVATE_KEY" | tr -d '\r' > ~/.ssh/id_rsa
 - chmod 700 ~/.ssh/id_rsa
 - eval $(ssh-agent -s)
 - ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
 - ssh-keyscan -H 'host.host.com' >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts
 - ssh-keyscan host.host.com | sort -u - ~/.ssh/known_hosts -o ~/.ssh/known_hosts
 - rm -rf .git
 - '[[ -f /.dockerenv ]] && echo -e "Host *\n\tStrictHostKeyChecking no\n\n" > ~/.ssh/config'

testSSH:
  script:
    - ssh [email protected] "cd Desktop/testssh && git pull origin master"

I have been troubleshooting for hours and cannot resolve the issue. Could anyone please help?

how can i use a different ssh port (like 2222) ??

Use

sofyansitorus · 2019-11-24T14:20:03Z

I had to also run this on the deployment server

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44363537/gitlab-ci-ssh-permission-denied-publickey-password
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

This did the trick!

@van4oza

$ echo "$TEST_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY" | tr -d '\r' | ssh-add - >/dev/null
Error loading key "(stdin)": invalid format

I have had the same error.
You added TEST_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY as protected variable to the GitLab CI/CD config. This is fine. But the variable then only gets exposed to protected branches (master for example is per default) and protected tags. I configured the v* wildcard (matches my use case) as protected tags and it did run.

This worked

yannhowe · 2020-02-18T13:15:29Z

So sorry I can't really contribute guys cos I've moved on to other tools and things over the past few years after a short time kicking the tires on gitlab. This gist has really taken on a mind of its own. Glad it facilitated some useful discussion.

duclm2609 · 2020-05-03T14:05:27Z

Which tool do use you now for CI/CD? I'm tired with Jenkins, yet moved to Gitlab CI/CD but the SSH way was just too f**king dumb.

tyliggity · 2020-05-21T19:34:07Z

Hey all, just tackled this today. FYI, this is how you can do git operations (i.e. tagging) from within CI as of today (variable of type 'File'):

tagging_job:
  stage: release
  image: ubuntu
  before_script:
    - mkdir -p ~/.ssh
    # Settings > Repository > Deploy Keys > "DEPLOY_KEY_PUBLIC" is the public key of the utitlized SSH pair (choose `Write access allowed` on creation)
    # Settings > CI/CD > Variables > "DEPLOY_KEY_PRIVATE" is the private key of the utitlized SSH pair, type is 'File' and ends with empty line
    - mv "$DEPLOY_KEY_PRIVATE" ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    - chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    - 'which ssh-agent || ( apt-get update -y && apt-get install openssh-client git -y )'
    - eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
    - ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    - ssh-keyscan -H 'gitlab.com' >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts
  script:
    # try to connect to GitLab.com
    - ssh [email protected]
    # fresh clone
    - mkdir ~/source && cd $_
    - git clone [email protected]:$CI_PROJECT_PATH.git
    - cd $CI_PROJECT_NAME
    # Version tag
    - git tag my-tag
    - git push --tags -o ci.skip

The -o ci.skip part causes the generated pipeline to be skipped (not auto-ran). If you want to not generate a pipeline at all for your tag push, add this to the top of the .gitlab-ci.yml:

workflow:
  rules:
    - if: $CI_COMMIT_TAG
      when: never
    - when: always

Peace

Hi Guys
This trick works...try it.
thanks @sofyansitorus

rafaelstz · 2020-08-09T22:23:14Z

I had to unprotect the variable to make it work.

This was exactly what is going on for me. And anyone else that feels like they need to unprotect their variable, don't do that. Just go configure your protected branches and tags to inject these variables like @richardhj said.

is worked for me
( add a SSH_PRIVATE_KEY in var settings )
