[Urgent Help] Used shutdown -h now on my Digital ocean vps

[meetdilip]

My site is offline now and I cannot log in using the IP. Any way I can start it myself ? SoS

If you are DO, restart it from the dashboard. That's the only way you can do that after shutting it down. Next time try shutdown -r now.

A friend did all these for me. I do not have the log in details. Just tried the link you gave.

Since it's your server, you should get the dashboard log in info from him. You need to have it.

Will try contacting him. No other way, right ? Even with root password ?

@meetdilip

The root password is useful only if the server is running. If it isn't, there's nothing to connect to.

Thanks
