Terraform Public Registry - Host key verification failed-CodePudding

I'm trying to use a module from a public repo, but doing

module "eka_iam_role_ca" {
  source = "[email protected]:ahmad-hamade/terraform-eks-config.git//eks-iam-role?ref=TAG"

  cluster_name     = local.cluster_name
  role_name        = "cluster-autoscaler"
  service_accounts = ["kube-system/cluster-autoscaler"]
  policies         = [data.aws_iam_policy_document.cluster_autoscaler.json]

  tags = {
    Terraform = "true"
    Environment = "dev"
  }
}

Throws:

│ Error: Failed to download module
│ 
│ Could not download module "eka_iam_role_ca" (role.tf:1) source code from "git::ssh://[email protected]/ahmad-hamade/terraform-eks-config.git?ref=TAG": error

I had no problems using git so far, I can still use my own repos without a problem, but I'm not sure why this one refuses to work.

Yes, but that was with your account.

The module is using /home/root1/.ssh/id_rsa, meaning it is not executed with your account, and do not have access to the same keys (or any key at all).

You need to make sure the process is executed with the right account (one with the expected keys).
