# Server IP Address Deleted

 * Hello.
    I created my site using the Digital Ocean provider. The site had been
   up and running for a long time. By carelessness I deleted Droplet from my site,
   thus eliminating my IP address. I contacted Digital Ocean, they said there is
   no way to recover Droplet. So I decided to create another Droplet with a new 
   IP address to connect to my existing domain. I just downloaded wordpress and 
   made the initial settings, but when I try to access wp-admin it says I can’t 
   access this site claiming I can’t find the server’s IP address. How can I solve?
   My goal is to use my domain on another IP address.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fserver-ip-address-deleted%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Update your DNS so the A record points to that new IP. It appears that the DNS
   host for xmassagem.com is freenom.com.

 * Hello,
    Already updated the DNS to the registry point to the new IP. I am now
   unable to enable SSL to link https to my site.
 * It looks like https is still still tied to my old IP. When I search for my site
   on Google the site appears with https, and when I try to access this error appears:
 * This site is unable to provide a secure connection xmass.com uses an unsupported
   protocol.
    ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH
 * When I access the panel with the new IP, it appears:
 * Detected possible certificate issues
    Really Simple SSL failed to detect a valid
   SSL certificate. If you have an SSL certificate, try to reload this page over
   https by clicking this button:
 * The built-in certificate check will run once daily, to force a new certificate
   check visit the SSL settings page. Really Simple SSL requires a valid SSL certificate.
   You can check your certificate on Qualys SSL Labs.

 * You need to install a certificate. DO has tutorials on how to set up LetsEncrypt.
   None of these are WP questions.
