[v0.0.18] Issue running the command mila init

[mptouzel]

What command did you run?

mila init

Describe the bug

I am following the setup procedure as in the user guide. After successfully installing milatools, 'mila init' command fails with traceback:
File "/home/mptouzel/miniconda3/lib/python3.10/site-packages/milatools/cli/commands.py", line 82, in main

Hi @mptouzel , thanks for posting!
Hmm, this is possibly the same issue as in #109

Hi @mptouzel , I came across the same issue weeks ago #140
I fixed it by manually adding the SSH keys.

You can first check if the SSH keys id_rsa and id_rsa.pub by running ls ~/.ssh. If not(which is my case), you can create by running ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "<user>@mila.quebec" then copy it to the server using ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa -p 2222 user@login.server.mila.quebec

Hope that helps!
