Contabo Server down
Our contabo server has been down from past many hours today. Already submitted a ticket and also contacted them on Twitter. I received a reply on Twitter that they have escalated my issue but there seems to be no resolution yet. There are similar outage reports from many other users too on twitter.

Twitter X is alive?

Updated pending deadpool list
threads that could be a support ticket!!
At least you know it's not your shit that's broken since others are affected as well.
Yes that could have made things worse. But they seem to be enjoying their Sunday.
When it comes back up they’ll reply and gaslight you, “looks like it’s online to me.”
Which providers are reselling or colocating at Contabo?
Fortunately I found someone having same hostsystem as ours and his vps is down too. It seems to be bigger issue.
Hetzner? LOL

Try a different provider:D
Sadly BlackFriday ended, but at netcup the BF offers was available without long contracts so they got very very tempting offers.
I hoppe that you made backup about important data:D
their offers are still on:

It's still down?
hetzner, not a chance. one is free to wish though
It has been more than 12 hours since I created a ticket and I have not heard back from them. All our services are down.
relevance?
Hetzner and Contabo? Hell no! They are one of the biggest Germany providers, and already on the market 20+ years.
Your downtime has been doubled!
They just have a shit website. Probably gets attacked often (and Hetzner don't handle attacks too well, they probably nullroute themselves). Their actual service is okay as long as you don't expect to be DDoSed and don't expect an SLA contract.
As a point of reference, I've had two VMs for over 2.5 years, one of them has never gone down once and the other has had once downtime incident that lasted an hour. I cheekily asked them if they provide compensation (an hour is not much, I was just curious) and they stated that they do not offer any SLAs. For the price I deemed that acceptable risk. Others will come to different conclusions which is fine, but I don't think they're likely to deapool : )
Contabo though.. good luck. Many have success but equally many have constant issues.
Hmm...12hours is very long...
Wonder what happened..
Contabo normally reply quite fast.
Dunno if the problem is it restricted to certain few VPS in the server only
The worst part is I have backup hosted on same vps
Oh my...
Backup should SSH to somewhere else at least.
Have you try to vnc in?
I tried VNC it's not connecting either.
It is because Contabo will non route your server whenever there is a DDoS attack.
Strange that there is no acknowledgement by Contabo regarding the outage on their server status page. Although many others out there have reported downtime too on their Twitter account.
Oh, I have just checked their status page. They are performing maintenances during last few days if I am not wrong: https://contabo-status.com/
