i created a 2nd wp installation (duplicated wp tree and created a s 2nd database) and pointed a 2nd domain to it. But when I try to access via the 2nd domain, I am getting the “Please log in to your droplet via SSH…” message…How do I make it go away?

Hello friend!

Did you create a new virtual host / server block with the web server for the new domain? These are some example guides on how to do that for Apache or Nginx:

How To Set Up Apache Virtual Hosts on Ubuntu 16.04
by Brennen Bearnes
The Apache web server is the most popular way to serve web content on the internet. Apache has the ability to serve multiple domains from a single server by using a mechanism called "virtual hosts". If a virtual host is configured correctly for each domain, the web server can correctly route traffic to the appropriate files based on the domain name requested. In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to configure Apache virtual hosts on an Ubuntu 16.04 server.
