Google server putty connect 'Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey)
debian, google-cloud-platform, google-compute-engine, putty, ssh
Solution
I had PuTTY working and then one day got this error.
Solution: I had revised the folder path name containing my certificates (private keys), and this caused Pageant to lose track of the certificates and so was empty.
Once I re-installed the certificate into Pageant then Putty started working again.
Problem
I'm trying to connect to my Debian Google Compute Engine server through PuTTy (I've tried other alternatives too) but when I do I get the error "Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey) The google server came without a username and password, only a url to automatically login to their own terminal.
