Terraform remote-exec creating forever

I have a terraform main.tf and which has a remote-exec provisioner to create a file, but it takes forever and gives the following error

Error: timeout - last error: SSH authentication failed ([email protected]:22): ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [none], no supported methods remain

And it never stops.

This is what I am trying to do:

resource "null_resource" "web3" {
  triggers = {
    key = "${uuid()}"
  }
  provisioner "remote-exec" {
    inline = [
      "touch /etc/machan_kohomada_remote_execution"
    ]
    connection {
        type = "ssh"
        host = google_compute_instance.first-two-servers[0].network_interface.0.access_config.0.nat_ip
    }
  }
}

I think maybe I am using the remote-exec function in a wrong way? What I need to do is:

I need to create a file /etc/remote_execution in each google compute server

this is complete connection block. try using a complete block

connection {
    type        = "ssh"
    user        = "ec2-user"
    private_key = file("keypair2.pem")
    host        = aws_instance.my_instance.public_ip
  }
