I'm trying to use DBeaver on Ubuntu 22. The DB I'm trying to connect to needs my ssh key, but when I try to connect, I get the error:
Can't initialize tunnel
Cannot run program "ssh-keygen": error=13, Permission denied
error=13, Permission denied
My .ssh folder has permissions at 700 and the key itself is at 644. Short of setting the folder and key to 777, which I obviously won't do, I can't figure out 1) what's wrong, and then 2) how to fix it.

I've had nothing but issues with DBeaver, personally. Not a useful tool at all, in my experience. But, you couldn't set it to 777 or openssh itself would outright reject that level of no. How did you install it? And I'm assuming, Ubuntu 22.04, not 22.10 (yes, there's multiple versions of Ubuntu, 2 per year)

Sorry, yes, 22.04. I used the software gui that came with Ubuntu. I admit I don't love it either, it was just the best free gui I found. I'm happy to take a suggestion on an alternative, and I probably should just pay for one.
I didn't think it being a sub par software would lead to permissions issues.

Beekeeper Studio is what I use.

Well, that depends on how it's installed. YOu never really answered that. Ubuntu doesn't just "come with" this software out of the box.
So, "Software GUI" suggests snap, which suggests sandboxing, which ... IN snaps, this is eww.
ionic sandal
Ah. Not something I was aware of.
Sorry if the answer was unclear, it was just the best I could make.
thorn trail
Snaps sandboxing is a major pain of bad design. Flatpak at least allows more granular control when and where needed/.

And possibly Beekeeper Studio (which is free, but has a paid for version as well, but it's not really too benefitial to yourself, unless you want to support the developers)
ionic sandal
I do use apt-get through the cli, but I figured since the gui came prepackaged, I should use that.
If it's good software, I do usually go for the paid version to support.
thorn trail
Yeah, Beekeeper Studio has an AppImage, and it's also in Flathub flatpak repo.
ionic sandal
OK, so sounds like it's not something I actively screwed up, but rather my lack of knowledge.
I'll study up on snap vs flatpak, and look at alternatives to dbeaver.
Does that sound accurate?
thorn trail
Yep.
