Wrong passphrase or invalid/unrecognized private key file format

I am trying to use the SSH2-function with a private key. The same key works perfectly in sqlyog. There is no password so I guess it has to be the file format. What should it look like?

Version: 4.6.4 Full error message:

Port forwarding failed.

Unable to extract public key from private key file: Wrong passphrase or invalid/unrecognized private key file format -16

You need to use the old format: https://github.com/nodegit/nodegit/issues/1606. "include the following args in your ssh-keygen command: -m PEM"
