问题
when i want to connect to my server like this
ssh -a username@my-server.de -p 22
it gives me two error messages:
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
shell request failed on channel 0
when i use the Parameter -T the first error message goes away.
But how to fix the second one?
I can't connect. To other server i can connect without any problems.
i'm on MAC OS 10.9
The Parameter -v shows me this debug output:

回答1:
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
There is a limit of 256 pseudo terminals on a system. Maybe you have an application that is leaking pseudo terminals. Use
lsof /dev/pts/*
to see what processes have open pseudo-terminals
shell request failed on channel 0
I was getting this error (without PTY allocation error). It turns out that one of my applications (QtCreator 3.0.?) was leaking Zombie processes. Other users were able to log in so I might have been hitting my per user process quota (if there is such a thing). I've updated to QtCreator 3.3. So far so good.

unmount and mount /dev/pts worked for me
umount /dev/pts
mount devpts /dev/pts -t devpts

I had the exact same error trying to connect via ssh to my server. As I can see you're using a server provided by Hetzner connecting to it on port 22:
debug1: Connecting to xxx.your-server.de [188.40.3.15] port 22.
The offical wiki/documention from Hetzner says:
Protocol for encrypted remote diagnostics for servers/computers(consoles). The SSH port to be used is 222.
So you have to connect via port 222:
ssh -p 222 username@my-server.de

Just add these lines to your /etc/mtab and /etc/fstab, and reboot the system.
none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
回答5:
just found out, what was the problem in my case (provider strato): I had the same problem with output "shell request failed on channel 0" in the end.
I have to use the master password with the web-domain name as login. (In German www.wunschname.de, where wunschname is your web-address.)
A ssh login with sftp-user names and the corresponding passwords is without success. (Although scp and sftp works with these sftp users!)

I solved a similar problem with one of our users who was used only for ssh port forwarding so he don't need to have access to PTY and it was prohibited in .ssh/authorized_keys file:
no-pty ssh-rsa AAA...nUB9 someuser
So when you tried to log in to this user, only message
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
was returned. So check your user's authorized_keys file.
回答7:
rebooting the instance from AWS console worked for me. There was a service that was leaking file connections that lsof helped find.
回答8:
It's an old question, but if someone gets here like me...
This might be result of a wrong date in the server. If you are working with an embedded system this might be the cause... So check your date:
$ date
回答9:
shell request failed on channel 0
mean you don't have shell or remote commands access, fix your user permission on server to have shell access or if you just want tunneling use -N and -T options
回答10:
Try this:
vi /etc/security/limits.d/20-nproc.conf
* soft nproc 4096 # change to 65535
root soft nproc unlimited
回答11:
remounting /dev/pts works for me. you can do this remotely via ssh if you run ssh like this against the affected machine. ssh doesn't request a tty when running commands like this and therefore this will allow you to remount /dev/pts remotely
ssh user@host -- 'mount -o remount,rw /dev/pts'
回答12:
I occasionally see this when spinning up a VM. Our automation system starts applying updates, so depending on timing can hit an update to critical packages.
Upshot - this might happen if ssh or other related packages are being updated on the destination machine.
回答13:
I encountered this error while using my git bash. I was able to solve this by re-installing git for windows. More details in this answer.
回答14:
I also faced the same issue. Just restarting my servers solved the issue.

Should a person find themselves reading this QA while they are trying to ssh into a NetGear ReadyNAS device, be sure that the "rsync only" checkbox is unchecked in the dialog box for the ssh service in the admin interface.

This was happening when I was trying to use sudo on ssh -t git@github.com after adding my local user's public key to github
Just a head's up to the google happy people like me
