How to connect to an AWS EC2 instance using filezillla?

Question

I have an instance of AWS EC2. I am using filezilla 3.8.0, but I can’t connect the instance, filezilla does not accept the normal account type and asks for a password. When I print the ubunbu username and password blank, I received the following message:

Disabled: no authentication methods available (server sent: publishing)

I inserted the pem key and converted the ppk key. My staff can connect, but I can’t. What's wrong?

thanks

Answer 1

In particular, here is a screenshot of the dialog in which you must add your ssh private key.

Answer 2

This happens in AWS EC2. Because EC2 provides connectivity through SFTP, other methods must be used. First, CONNECTION will be used by default in FTP. You must upgrade to SFTP. Then, instead of directly specifying the hostname and password, this should be done in Site Manager . The step-by-step procedure below:

So, troubleshooting steps:

• Go to Filezilla Settings
• SFTP
• Add key file (specify the file with the converted ppk key or FZ converts the pem ket)

Then grab the file in Filezilla Go to

• File
• Site manager
• New site
• Give any name (ec2-amazon)
• In general, specify the host name 'Public DNS' (for example: ec2-34-423.ap-southeast ...)
• Change protocol to SFTP
• Input Type: Normal
• User: ec2-user or ubuntu - depends
• Clear password
• Connect!

Hope you will be connected. Happy Hosting ... :)

Answer 3

Try the following configuration in filezilla,
set Logon type = Interactive, Protocal = SFTP and attach the key file to the SFTP file system from the menu MenuBar → Edit → Settings → SFTP → Add key file.

Hope this helps.

I ran into the same problem - I keep answering @Amith Ajith, but found that my setup was as it is.

• I select the file as privatekey.pem that I created.
• Change the "Transfer" parameter as active
  it worked for me.
