Deploying EmberJS to AWS using SSH + RSync

Question

I've managed to deploy a simple todo app unto AWS with S3 using this site http://emberigniter.com/deploy-ember-cli-app-amazon-s3-linux-ssh-rsync/

However, when I attempt to do this ( Deploying with SSH and Rsync ) according to the tutorial, I run into the following error:

gzipping **/*.{js,css,json,ico,map,xml,txt,svg,eot,ttf,woff,woff2}

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]

rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at /BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/rsync/rsync-47/rsync/io.c(453) [sender=2.6.9]

The following is my config/deploy.js

module.exports = function(deployTarget) {
    var ENV = {
        build: {
        environment: deployTarget
    },

    's3-index': {
        accessKeyId: "<myKeyID>",
        secretAccessKey: "<mySecret>",
        bucket: "emberjsft",
        region: "ap-southeast-1",
        allowOverwrite: true
    },
    's3': {
        accessKeyId: "<myKeyID>",
        secretAccessKey: "<mySecret>",
        bucket: "emberjsft",
        region: "ap-southeast-1"
    },

    'ssh-index': {
        remoteDir: "/var/www/",
        username: "ec2-user",
        host: "ec2-<elastic-ip>.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
        privateKeyFile: "/Users/imac/MY_AWS_PEMFILE.pem", 
        allowOverwrite: true
    },
    rsync: {
        dest: "/var/www/",
        username: "ec2-user",
        host: "ec2-<elastic-ip>.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
        delete: false
    }
    // include other plugin configuration that applies to all deploy targets here
    };

    if (deployTarget === 'development') {
        ENV.build.environment = 'development';
    // configure other plugins for development deploy target here
    }

    if (deployTarget === 'staging') {
        ENV.build.environment = 'production';
    // configure other plugins for staging deploy target here
    }

    if (deployTarget === 'production') {
        ENV.build.environment = 'production';
    // configure other plugins for production deploy target here
    }

    // Note: if you need to build some configuration asynchronously, you can return
    // a promise that resolves with the ENV object instead of returning the
    // ENV object synchronously.
    return ENV;
};

How should I resolve this issue?

Thanks

I've just spent the last hour fighting the same issue as you. I was able to kind of fix it by using ssh-add /home/user/.ssh/example-key.pem and removing privateKeyFile.

I still get a error thrown after the transfer ends, but can confirm all files successfully transferred to my EC2 box despite the error..

deploy.js

module.exports = function (deployTarget) {

  var ENV = {
    build: {
      environment: deployTarget
    },
    'ssh-index': {
      remoteDir: "/var/www/",
      username: "ubuntu",
      host: "52.xx.xx.xx",
      allowOverwrite: true
    },
    rsync: {
      host: "[email protected]",
      dest: "/var/www/",
      recursive: true,
      delete: true
    }
  };

  return ENV;

};
