Rsync to Google Compute Instance by Jenkins
I want to send files from Jenkins to my instance on a Google Compute engine instance. I added the assembly to my config in jenkins:
rsync -vrzhe "ssh -i /var/lib/jenkins/.ssh/google_compute_engine -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o CheckHostIP=no -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no" . login@Host:/var/www
And I am getting this error:

Any idea

first set up your .ssh config file (assuming you have installed gcloud sdk):
gcloud compute config-ssh
It will tell you that "you can now use ssh / scp with your instances by running
ssh your-instance
your instance is usually in the form "instance.zone.project".
Now you can rsync:
rsync -ave ssh your-local-dir your-instance:~/your-destination
Done.
You can specify the user if you like it:
rsync -ave ssh your-local-dir your-user@your-instance:~/your-destination
This worked for me. Juts don't forget to replace "your instance" (and your user) with the correct one. You can get it via "gcloud compute config-ssh" or "gcloud compute config-ssh -dry-run" or go to your cloud.google.com then compute engine and then vm instances and then from connect select gcloud command view. Everything will display your instance name in the form "instance.zone.project".
I hope this helps someone in the future. :)

Maybe a little late, but you can use the command gcloud compute ssh
directly instead of finding google ssh keys.
First, you have to make a script that will hide the rsync ssh commands from gcloud:
cat >./gcloud-compute-ssh <<EOF
#! /bin/sh
host="$1"
shift
exec gcloud compute ssh "$host" -- "$@"
EOF
chmod a+x ./gcloud-compute-ssh
Then you can rsync -e
add your heart:
rsync -e ./gcloud-compute-ssh my-dir my-instance:/my-dir

As mentioned in " How to resolve rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) in io.c (600) on windows ", check which ssh is actually being used and if that version of ssh is compatible with one of the rsync s.
Specifying an absolute path for the ssh executable can help:
rsync -e /usr/bin/ssh ....
This thread also offers to clear ~/.ssh/know_hosts
if the server has changed and now has a different key.
