[erlang-bugs] Error on running Erlang SSH server

[Mario Santoro]

Hi,
I'm trying to run an SSH server in Erlang and test a <user/password> connection over SSH.
I've generated an RSA keys pair (with NO passphrase) for the SSH system and put the private key into "C:/Utility/Putty/ssh_daemon" directory,
while the user public_key is into "C:/Utility/Putty/public_key" directory.
I'm running both the server and the client on the same PC, into two different Erlang nodes.

The SSH server starts fine:
(node1@REDACTED)1> ssh:start().
ok
(node1@REDACTED)2> {ok, Sshd} = ssh:daemon(8988, [{auth_methods, "password"}, {user_passwords, [{"mario", "mariopasswd"}, {system_dir, "C:/Utility/Putty/ssh_daemon"}]} ]).
{ok,<0.54.0>}


but on receiving a connection from the client:
(node2@REDACTED)1> ssh:start().
ok
(node2@REDACTED)2> {ok, ConnectionRef} = ssh:connect("E7E4115BF83167", 8988, [{user, "mario"}, {password, "mariopasswd"}, {user_dir, "C:/Utility/Putty/public_key"}, {silently_accept_hosts, true}, {user_interaction, false} ], 5000).
** exception error: no match of right hand side value {error,"Internal error"}


the SSH server application is crashing with the following error:
(node1@REDACTED)3>
=ERROR REPORT==== 29-May-2014::17:44:58 ===

                             [{file,"ssh_transport.erl"},{line,314}]},
              {ssh_connection_handler,key_exchange,2,
                                      [{file,"ssh_connection_handler.erl"},
                                       {line,201}]},
              {gen_fsm,handle_msg,7,[{file,"gen_fsm.erl"},{line,494}]},
              {proc_lib,init_p_do_apply,3,[{file,"proc_lib.erl"},{line,239}]}]
please report this to erlang-bugs@REDACTED


This happens at each client connection attempt.
Could you please help me on this issue?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards,
