Make sure the authorized_keys file and the private key itself have the correct permissions and ownership. Check that key-based authentication is allowed by the server. Make sure the private key is readable by the SSH client. If you're using PuTTY, make sure your SSH keys are properly configured for the session.
Several issues, mostly privileges - but also related to SELinux on RedHat 6
The following script should fix them all, please replace <user>:<group> with your matching userid and group
chown -R <user>:<group> ~/.ssh
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/*
restorecon -R -v ~/.ssh
