[Sugar-devel] unable to launch record activity in sugar development environment

[Sam Parkinson]

Hi,

Try copying your ssh keys to [dot sugar dir]/default/. You should copy the
id_rsa.pub to owner.key.pub

Have a look at this for how to make ssh keys if you need to:
https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

Hope that helps :)
