Hello, trying to use Ansible https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible to install Lemmy on a OVH VPS.

Configured DNS and ping it is ok.
I can reach the server with a sudo user on SSH

Installed Ansible on my local machine and follow the steps.

When i execute:

$ ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts lemmy.yml

I have this error (I replaced for this help request real username and real ip address)

PLAY [all] ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

TASK [check lemmy_base_dir] *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
skipping: [myuser@myip]

TASK [install python for Ansible] *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [myuser@myip]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to connect to the host via ssh: myuser@myip: Permission denied (publickey,password).", "unreachable": true}

PLAY RECAP ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
myuser@myip      : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=1    failed=0    skipped=1    rescued=0    ignored=0

What am i missing?

How many ssh keys do you have installed on your system? sshd will lock you out after a few failed attempts, the answer is typically ssh config files or just using one key for all services on that machine.
