SFTP problems

Post by OlafTheUnready »

I am trying to follow the reversi tutorial.
Looking at this page:
https://github.com/NevinAF/bga-ts-templ ... s/index.md

This bit:
"Run the SFTP: Sync Remote -> Local command. This will download all initial files from the BGA server to your local folder."
Does not work: I get "All configured authentication methods failed"

Resolved.

The model for accounts on BGA is quite confusing, perhaps it should be better documented somwhere.
1. There's my main account to play games, I can get in there by signing in with Google. Username OlafTheUnready.
2. Then there's my "develop with this account" account, I can get in there by signing in with DougBanks0 and custom password.
3. Then there's OTHER username/passwd pairs for certain services like SFTP and database.

I was using 2 and I should have been using 3.

This is what documented now on https://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/How_t ... er_team%3F

Is this not clear? We can adjust wiki in this case

Once registered, you will get this by email:

* one login / password to access files through SFTP
* one login / password to access the database (for your games in progress)
* ten logins with numeric suffixes from 0 to 9 and a common simple password to test games on the studio website while developing.
