    Aapanel works fine. Put it behind Cloudflare Access for maximum security :)

    Why not , it's pretty solid .Some folks here have over a year uptime
    If you don't breach Terms , I don't think they will terminate your server .

    Because of somethings goes wrong you can't complain to support that it broken. Also you don't have any SLA...

    “FREE” could disappear any day without a trace. No warnings, no access to portal, no response to support enquires and it will be like your account never existed.

    Can I use free tier for production site ? is it reliable ?

    Using it from 1 year in production and so far:

    • 1x outage on x86
    • 1x outage on ARM
      Both instances were migrated to another node in like 5-10 minutes. Other than that it was 100% uptime, no network issues.

    If you are worried then get cheapest VPS "just in case" and make 1:1 backup to it. You can get something for $10-$15 year.

    I want to use it for production , the only problem is directadmin doesn't support arm processor , I have personal license

    Don't depend on free services for production.

    Why not , it's pretty solid .Some folks here have over a year uptime
    If you don't breach Terms , I don't think they will terminate your server .

    You skipped the previous 43 pages showing numerous examples where they are not "pretty solid"? :facepalm:

    Yes. Just make sure to create a disaster recovery button.

    Actually, they provide free snapshots (manual) so when they do fuck up your server, they don't feel bad and don't immediately try to solve the issue besides saying to restore from backup.

    They did a blog post with a simple script to backup the server that you can cron.

    Do you have the blog post link?

    Google not finding it, so I'm wondering if they removed it. It was slightly out of date with additional syntax needed, but it also was written to hobbiests and I can see them removing them to focus on professionals.

    A Google hit did turn up this link for a different script (haven't looked at it)

    That's why You should always have offsite backups

    Even a paid provider may disappear one day

    Right, if anything free is great for something like a second/emergency backup.

    Oracle has identified security vulnerability CVE-2022-21503 that affected the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Identity service. As a result of this vulnerability, administrators and their designees with read-access to the OCI audit-records in your tenancy could have viewed some credentials in clear text. For this reason, several of your users' console UI passwords must be changed by July 18, 2022:
    • When those users log in to the OCI console, the login process will prompt them to change their console passwords.
    • If any of those users does not log in to the OCI console by July 18, 2022, that user's console password will expire.
    • Once a user's console password has expired, that user cannot log in. The user can either reset that console password (if the user has a verified email-address) or ask an administrator to reset the user's console password.
    • Once an expired console password has been reset, the user can log in to the OCI console and the login process will prompt the user to change the console password.

    If you're using this you'll probably want to log in before July 18 to trigger the password update just in case password resets are broken (and the lack of free support means you'd never be able to get it fixed)

    I am sure the dumbest of questions but how do I ssh into the instance?

    sudo ssh -i /home/amd/Downloads/ssh-key-2022-06-23.key [email protected]

    Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic).

    ssh is key only. There's also a bug on their ubuntu 22.04 image where it refuses the key. 20.04 image is fine.

    sigh Pebkac

    Fail. "Linux" isn't your OS, it's your kernel. You were being asked what your OS was because opc isn't the default user for all Oracle default VM's.

    The default username for the instance. If you used a platform image for Linux, CentOS, or Windows to launch the instance, the username is opc. If you used an Ubuntu platform image to launch the instance, the username is ubuntu.

    Don't ask me why Oracle couldn't just set "opc" as default user in Ubuntu image, I think Oracle is super incompetent.

    The error wasn't about ciphers or mismatch protocols. Permission denied is wrong user, missing pub key in authorized_keys, or bad file/dir permissions on the ssh key.
