I followed all the steps in setting up a Ghost droplet. The IP address was reachable till yesterday but I get “Site can’t be reached” error today. I had yet to set up an A record pointing to that IP but i don’t see how those two are linked. What could have possibly gone wrong?

Hi there @systemsDolphin,
It sounds like that either your web server like Apache or Nginx is not running or your firewall is blocking your connections.
Would you mind sharing the exact article which you followed in order to set up your Ghost Droplet so that I could try to advise you further?
Regards, Bobby
