I’m having a hard time copying files over to my Google Compute Engine. I am using an Ubuntu server on Google Compute Engine.
I’m doing this from my OS X terminal and I am already authorized using gcloud
.
local:$ gcloud compute copy-files /Users/Bryan/Documents/Websites/gce/index.php example-instance:/var/www/html --zone us-central1-a Warning: Permanently added '<IP>' (RSA) to the list of known hosts. scp: /var/www/html/index.php: Permission denied ERROR: (gcloud.compute.copy-files) [/usr/bin/scp] exited with return code [1].

Answer
insert root@
before the instance name:
local:$ gcloud compute copy-files /Users/Bryan/Documents/Websites/gce/index.php root@example-instance:/var/www/html --zone us-central1-a
