Cannot ssh into server or access console

Posted on March 1, 2014

When I attempt to ssh, I just get a cursor and nothing happens. I was able to ssh into the server as of last night… not sure what went wrong.

I also am unable to access the console. When I launch it, the loading bar loads about 10% and then stops.

Hello there, <br> <br>I would recommend rebooting your droplet and attempting to connect to SSH again, failing that - attempt to connect to it through Digital Ocean’s Panel.
