Cannot connect to my EC2 instance because of "Permission denied (publickey)"
- by Burak
In AWS console, I saw that my key pair was deleted. I created a new one with the same name. Then I tried to connect with ssh -v -i sohoKey.pem ec2-user@******.compute-1.amazonaws.com
Here's the output:

Update: I detached my old EBS and attached to the new instance. Now, how can I mount it?
