Launchpad itself

Unable to connect to SSH host bazaar.launchpad.net; [Error 2]

Asked by plroit

Hi,
I have recently joined launchpad and bazaar just to get a copy of a project I'm interested in,
I logged in successfully to launchpad and added a public SSH key,
and established a login name in bazaar.
However when I try to branch a project I get : Unable to connect to SSH host bazaar.launchpad.net; [Error 2]

Following the answers to this question https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/173890

I am able to telnet bazaar.launchpad.net on port 22 ( I get a response ).
I am also able to issue a bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr-pqm/bzr/bzr.dev
(that was suggested by Martin Pool).

What did go wrong?

Thanks, Paul

What happens if you manually run 'ssh <email address hidden>'?

I sshed into bazaar.launchpad.net and got in putty
'no supported authentication methods available' after
trying to figure what it means I decided to remake my public/private
key pair. Now PUTTY emits in the log that 'No shells on this server.' and exists

Still can't do a bzr branch from bazaar explorer due to ssh error no 2.

Have you set the BZR_SSH environment variable to the path of your putty executable? By default bzr won't use putty, but will use paramiko or 'ssh' if it can find it on your path.

Can you help with this problem?
