Are you running the latest version (released today). I have been working on

improved ssh support.

I'm trying to automate the build process for templates and have run into an
issue when trying to use a keypair.

I've created a valid keypair in the API:

(local) > list sshkeypairs
count = 1
sshkeypair:
name = keyname

I copied the output of the command used to create the key to a file as
detailed in https://shankerbalan.net/blog/ssh-keys-on-cloudstack-
guest-instances-using-cloud-init/

This is my .json file:

{
  "builders": [{
    "type": "cloudstack",
    "api_url": "{{user `api_url`}}",
    "api_key": "{{user `api_key`}}",
    "network": "{{user `network`}}",
    "secret_key": "{{user `secret_key`}}",
    "service_offering": "{{user `service_offering`}}",
    "source_template": "{{user `source_template`}}",
    "template_os": "{{user `template_os`}}",
    "zone": "{{user `zone`}}",
    "instance_name": "{{ user `instance_name`}}-{{timestamp}}",
    "template_name": "{{user `template_name`}}-{{timestamp}}",
    "template_password_enabled": true,
    "template_scalable": true,
    "expunge": true,
    "ssh_username": "{{user `ssh_username`}}",
    "ssh_private_key_file": "/root/to/cloudstack.pem",
    "keypair": "{{user `keypair`}}"
  }],
}

The variables are set in another file.

With this configuration I am getting:

==> cloudstack: Waiting for SSH to become available...
Build 'cloudstack' errored: unexpected EOF

==> Some builds didn't complete successfully and had errors:
--> cloudstack: unexpected EOF

I've also tried without the ssh_private_key_file setting but it hangs on
waiting for SSH to become available and eventually times out.
I am able to log in with the key file when I run packer and it is waiting
for ssh to become available and checked that the public key matches that
from http://vr/latest/public-keys

Assuming I'm doing something stupid, is anyone able to point me in the
right direction?

many thanks.
