All configured authentication methods failed

Hi,
I reinstalled my server today (I upgraded it to 22.04) and when I wanted to reconfigure an automatic "git pull" on it with github actions, I got the following error :

Here is my workflow file :

name: Command via SSH

on: push

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: pull palgania server
        uses: garygrossgarten/github-action-ssh@release
        with:
          command: pull
          host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
          username: ubuntu
          passphrase: ${{ secrets.PASSPHRASE }}
          privateKey: ${{ secrets.PRIVATE_KEY}}
        env:
          CI: true

The RSA keys which I use work correctly, I can connect my server through them.
I don't remember any issue the first time I configured it.
I did not try password connection but I can't use it, as it's a password-less login (RSA keys only).

Did you figure it out? I have the exact same problem.

Same here, any solution?

I did not find any solution with this action. I just pull manually for now. If you absolutely need something to pull automatically, you should maybe consider using an FTP solution as FTP-Deploy.
