Question

How to solve this ghost installation error ?

Hello, I am trying to install Ghost droplet but i am facing problem about ssl configuration. Here is the command line execution :

 ssh root@206.189.11.198

The authenticity of host '206.189.11.198 (206.189.11.198)' can't be established.

ECDSA key fingerprint is SHA256:VgOjIvic+j5B73UEg9EojDK1jkeyEALwtTe1GkaeXTg.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes

Warning: Permanently added '206.189.11.198' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

Heya,

The issue seemed to come from Message: Error trying to lookup DNS for 'entrepreneursfrancophones.fr

This is due to your DNS not being correct and your case the Nameservers are s1.digitalocean.com and so on. You’ll need to fix the typo, you’ve forgetten n infront. They should be like so

Hello,

It appears that you’ve set your nameservers to s1.digitalocean.com. This is incorrect as there is a missing n in the beginning. The correct nameservers for DigitalOcean are as follows:

  1. ns1.digitalocean.com
  2. ns2.digitalocean.com
  3. ns3.digitalocean.com

You would need to correct your nameservers and then give it another try.

Let me know how it goes!

Best,

Bobby
