Packer v0.12.2
Mac OS X 10.11.6

As suggested, I've moved this from the Github issues page to here as this 
is probably the best place for it.

Here are my 2 AWS key pairs on the host machine with sensible permissions:

ls -l ~/.ssh | grep key
-rw-------@ server_key.pem
-rw-r--r--  server_key.pub
-rw-------@ aws-key.pem
-rw-r--r--  aws-key.pub

Here they are existing in AWS:

aws ec2 describe-key-pairs
{
    "KeyPairs": [
        {
            "KeyName": "server_key", 
            "KeyFingerprint": "xxxxxxxxxx"
        }, 
        {
            "KeyName": "aws-key", 
            "KeyFingerprint": "xxxxxxxxxx"
        }
    ]
}

The build part of my packer.json. The ami is stock ubuntu.

{
  "variables": {
    "env": null
  },
  "builders": [{
    "type": "amazon-ebs",
    "region": "eu-west-1",
    "source_ami": "ami-98ecb7fe",
    "instance_type": "t2.micro",
    "ssh_username": "ubuntu",
    "ssh_agent_auth": true,
    "ssh_keypair_name": "aws-key",
    "ami_name": "{{user `env`}}-server-{{isotime \"2006-01-02_15-04-05\"}}",
    "run_tags": {"Name": "{{user `env`}}-server"},
    "run_volume_tags": {"Name": "{{user `env`}}-server"}
  }]
}

Everything runs fine when I set "ssh_keypair_name": "aws-key" (full log

However, for any new keys that I create and then set as my 
"ssh_keypair_name" (in this case "server_key"), I get the following ssh 
authentication error: (full log

Also, whilst the instance is up, I am able to SSH into it (note that the IP 
address is different to the above failed log as it was a different failed 
build):


ssh [email protected] -i ~/.ssh/server_key.pem
