Why am i having an error to configure my git connection in NeoLoad using ssh protocol with public/private key?

I get that error in NeoLoad when i test the connection. This is a subset of the error stack trace:

org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.TransportException: ssh://git@mygitserver.com:22/neoload/neoload.git: invalid privatekey: [B@115b4563

If i use the same key pair with git bash i'm able to clone my repository so i know that they are working.

NeoLoad uses Jsch for the SSH interaction with git. The key point is that You need to generate a key pair in a PEM format.

This error usually occurs when the header format of the private key is not RSA but something else like for example ed25519.

You may have to generate a new keypair using the -m PEM option like this: ssh-keygen -t rsa -m PEM so it can be used by Jsch.
