ssh: Must be connected to a terminal

[Colin Kincaid Williams]

Hi, I'm trying to run screen on a remote host through ssh however I get : Must be connected to a terminal.The server is a hosting account i pay for and get ssh shell on. I am able to compile code on it, however, I believe that it is a restricted jail shell. Is that why I can't use screen? I read and tried some different solutions found on the web. However, they did not work for me. Can somebody more knowledgeable can help me troubleshoot it?

Best,
