   I got SSH uploading working for a while, but it randomly stopped working.

   I've got the following setup for my ssh uploading in wp-config.php:

   define('FTP_BASE', '/var/www/jackalopegames.com/');
   define('FTP_CONTENT_DIR', '/var/www/jackalopegames.com/wp-content/');
   define('FTP_PLUGIN_DIR ', '/var/www/jackalopegames.com/wp-content/plugins/');
   define('FTP_PUBKEY', '/***/.ssh/id_rsa.pub');
   define('FTP_PRIKEY', '/***/.ssh/id_rsa');
   define('FTP_USER', '***');
   define('FTP_PASS', '***');
   define('FTP_HOST', 'localhost');

   When I try to upload anything with SSH, I get the following error.

   <b>Public and Private keys incorrect for root</b>

   I regenerated private and public keys, but nothing.

   I've searched this phrase and have gotten literally 0 results on Google, which leads me to believe that there is also 0 documentation for this problem. I've looked through a lot of tutorials on this, and none of them cover this error. I even had this working for a while, but it randomly stopped working after a while.

   UPDATE:

   Uploading media works, but uploading themes does not work.

   Any pointers?

   make sure the contents of id_rsa.pub are in your authorized_keys file, and then move both id_rsa.pub and id_rsa into a more public folder that apache can access
