I’ve tried 2 new droplets and seem to work fine now
I also created a new droplet and got the same error! i am lucky I didn’t delete the older one because I thought I locked my self out (somehow)…
Did anyone else try to reset root password then end up like this?
Same issue.
Same issue plz fix Digital Ocean!

I don’t like to reply without actually giving an answer, but I have the same issue. Logging in through “normal” ssh (i.e. via the computer’s terminal) isn’t working either. As usual, the Digital Ocean status page shows nothing relevant.
same issue here… cannot login via ssh root@myip and using the console I even reset the password and still cannot login… :/
Same issue here. Even created a new droplet and cant access the console.
got the same thing all day long, created almost 10 different droplets, power off, reset root pwd, reset root. opened 3 tickets to support, 1 of them answered they got access, but i still cant.
In the terminal I cloned a repository, worked on a file and then I used git add to add the file to the commit log and when I did git commit, it worked fine. Finally, git push asks for username and password. I put those in correctly and every time I do this, it says the same error.
Does anyone have any idea what the cause of this problem is and how I can fix it?
same issue here :/ i cannot SFTP either
