SSH to boot2qt stopped working
-
Hi,
I have been using boot2qt on a Toradex i.MX8.
When I powered up the Toradex today the device wont connect via SSH. A device appears in the Windows Device Manager when I plug in the USB connection (QDB Device & QDB Interface), but I cannot SSH using PowerShell nor deploy an application via Qt Creator. I have tried the test function in Qt Creator which comes back with
Connecting to host... Checking kernel version... uname failed: Warning: Identity file not accessible: No such file or directory. Checking if specified ports are available... Error gathering ports: Remote process crashed: Remote process crashed. Remote error output was: Warning: Identity file not accessible: No such file or directory. Device test failed.I am sure I powered the device down correctly last time, and have tried powering on/off today but cant seem to get in.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks

Hi,
Is your system stored on a removable media ?
If so you could check its content or create a new one with a basic image to check whether the problem may come from it. -
Thanks!
No we haven't set it up with removeable media. There is a manual process to reset the device and load a new OS that I know of. It looks like that is on the cards next...
However, I did manage to log in to boot2qt via the serial port. I can see that an SSH process is running, and the rest of the OS appears to be running fine. It must be something to do with the SSH configuration? Or would the IP address changed or something? Am going to spend a bit of time trying that. Otherwise, will try load a fresh OS.

Unless you configured somewhere in your network that your device shall always get the same IP address, then yes it may have changed.

Did you check the addresses ?
Are you accessing it using username/password of ssh keys ?
Do you have a firewall ? -
I got this issue when I had VPN running.
