Assuming your error output comes from running Ansible :

In the line [email protected] domain=example.com [email protected] lemmy_base_dir=/srv/lemmy you should change [email protected] into your-username-for-ssh@your-ssh-hostname and then when you run Ansible it will ask for your ssh password (or for your ssh key passphrase).

I have this problem too in trying to set up a new instance. Could you point me to something to help me understand how I can get a ssh connection working? The resources I've found so far (such as this ) don't resolve it for me.

Still trying to get around this and struggling. The setup (ansible-playbook lemmy.yml --become) has a fatal error due to not being able to connect. Any further suggestions? I think I have the wrong x@x input, but I don't know what I should be putting in there - at the moment using the server login and ip address?
