Deploying a build to Inmotionhosting server using SSH

Question

I have a build running on Github. Once the build is done, I want to push the files (DIST directory content) to a folder in my shared hosting.

The steps I followed:

1. I have the directory setup and there is a live URL for that directory.
2. In the Cpanel, I have created public and private keys. The key is authorized and converted to the PPK format.
3. I have the secret keys and data in the Git Hub Settings/Secrets config.
4. I have a build script and a deploy script. The build is successfully running and complete, but the deploy is failing.

The error is the following:

Run SamKirkland/web-deploy@v1

✅ Deploy Complete

I have the folliwing deploy code script main.yml:

on: push
name: Publish Website
jobs:
  web-deploy:
    name: 🚀 Deploy Website Every Commit
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: 🚚 Get Latest Code
      uses: actions/checkout@v3
    
    - name: 📂 Sync Files
      uses: SamKirkland/web-deploy@v1
      with:
        target-server: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
        ssh-port: 2222
        remote-user: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
        private-ssh-key: ${{ secrets.PRIVATE_SSH_KEY }}
        destination-path:  ${{ secrets.PATH }}

Does anyone know why I am getting the error?

Also I am using VUE3 and Webpack. The build is generating a huge number of JS files in the Dist > JS folder. I am not sure how to set that up to make it generate one or just a few files.

Thanks
