Answer 1

You need to ensure that your private key is in openssh format. With puttygen you can export as Openssh. This worked for me.

Answer 2

Check your username and public key this can cause problem. Attach the private key file with extension .ppk Also verify your connection with putty. Also check for the restriction on server.
