Hey @sagarn6588gmailcom,

This most probably means that the port 22 is closed on your Droplet. Is this a new Droplet?

You’ll need to use the Recovery Console to SSH and see if your firewall is preventing access to port 22.

The Recovery Console provides out-of-band access and is available regardless of your network settings. It emulates the access you would have if you were sitting down with a keyboard and monitor attached to the actual server. You can use this feature to log in and revert bad settings to regain normal access.

You can follow this documentation on how to enter your into your Droplet:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/droplets/resources/recovery-console/

Basically, you’ll reset your root password and use it via the root user on the Recovery console to connect to it. Once inside you can see what’s causing the exact issue and what happened with the upgrade.

Hope this helps!
