Issue with pubkey file during EMS Migration

Hi

 

I'm trying to migrate from EMS 7.2.5 to 7.4. I have gone through all the steps in the Admin guide and have now hit a brick wall. 

 

I am getting an error "Authentication (publickey) failed" and "encountered RSA key, expected OPENSSH key" and the migration is failing. I found this article at  https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiClient/Troubleshooting-Tip-Getting-an-error-when-performing-E... which did help with another error I had. However, the article just says to the generate the public key, which I have done and re-done several times with no effect. 

 

Has anyone had this issue? Can anyone help please?

 

Thanks

Roy

I managed to resolve this. It turns out the permissions on the user home folder were not correct, so once I changed them, the script ran and completed the migration.
