If ssh with password is working, did you try letting ssh decide for the correct location for your ssh key via ssh-copy-id: ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/my_key usern...@example.com First time it will of course log in via password, but any further login should use the ssh key. If the key is still not accepted, have you tried a different ssh key type (e.g. ed25519). Maybe the server rejects RSA keys?
