oops!

I almost did that very thing yesterday (lock myself out of my droplet). Fortunately it entered my head to add the alternative ssh port before I exited.

Good to know the web-console is there. I had not noticed that. I imagine the web-console runs from localhost so we can get in even if we messed up our ports?

please i can copy and paste the password into the Web Console? Can not log in with the Web Console because I have a very complicated password..

Thank you.

Unfortunately it is not possible to copy/paste text from/to the remote console. I would suggest typing your password in manually, fixing SSH access, and then switching to SSH.

Does not look like pasting works…maybe have a friend read the characters to you while you type

The remote console connects to your droplet through the hypervisor, so even if you lock down ssh completely, including localhost, you will still be able to access your droplet as if you had a monitor and keyboard connected straight to it. :)

I was able to access… Thank you!

Thanks a lot . . you made my day . .

I have the same issue with it and this tip is succeeded for me.
Thank you asb.

I couldn’t even use web console that also seems like not working i cant type anything there
