PuTTY is showing blank screen when I try to login

Posted on October 19, 2021

Hi, I have a problem related to PuTTy and also Filezilla, after I make several connections with both they stop working, PuTTy gets a clear window when I try to connect and Filezilla stops connecting to the server, does anyone have any suggestions to my problem? (I think it is probably something with SSH)

Hey there!

There was a similar issue reported on this here.

You may want to verify that there isn’t a firewall on your droplet blocking your connection after the multiple connection attempts. I’d recommend you also try installing the newest version of Putty. If you still see that fail try logging in through SSH using another SSH client or another machine and verify if you can connect.

Hope it helps! Nate
