ssh-copy-id not working for websync@docker container about websync

[gpapin]

I have the same issue,

When I try to setup a new host then click on 'SSH' button I'm being asked for a password (I was using private key authentication so I wasn't sure what I needed to put in the password field so I had to create a password for my user ... ) Then When I hit 'connect' I have this error /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: ERROR: No identities found I'm not sure what this means, and how to solve it ...

Any ideas ?

@0x1gene it means exactly what is sais, it can not locate any ssh rsa identities for the current user.
Two reasons come to mind why this would happen.

• You have no ssh identities created for the current user.
• The ssh identities you have are located at a different path then whats expected.

like if your ssh identities are located under /root/.ssh/ but you are logged in as oxigene it would look for your ssh identities under /home/oxigene/.ssh/

Also, are you experiencing this with the Docker container or regular?

sshpass -p 'mypass' ssh-copy-id -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no user@host

https://github.com/furier/websync/blob/master/lib/ssh-copy-id.js#L42

This was the only way I was able to get websync working in a docker environment. By default, sshpass wasn't able to send the password through to ssh-copy-id when it prompts for a fingerprint.

This obviously has it's downsides but without building a UI to confirm the fingerprint, it needs to be skipped.
