SSH failing on a single app (operation timed out)

Questions / Help
1

Essentially the same issue as these:

I’ve been trying to SSH into one of my apps, and keep seeing this error:

▲ fly ssh console

Connecting to fdaa:9:a7a:a7b:528:b93b:56c:2... complete
Error: error connecting to SSH server: dial: connect tcp [fdaa:9:a7a:a7b:528:b93b:56c:2]:22: operation timed out

As suggested in the other threads, I tried to clone the machine, but the clone operation is also failing (no volumes attached).

I tried restarting the app, scaling the app size, and scaling the app count (to a different region). But I’m still unable to SSH into the app when attempting to connect to the instance in the other region:

▲ fly ssh console -r ams

Connecting to fdaa:9:a7a:a7b:19b:3a34:6441:2... complete
Error: error connecting to SSH server: dial: connect tcp [fdaa:9:a7a:a7b:19b:3a34:6441:2]:22: operation timed out

Note that I’m still able to SSH into a different app on my personal account (which is also in a different region). But not into this one.

I just killed both machines (by scaling count to 0 in both regions). After that, I scaled the app back to 1 (in only one region):

 ID             │ NAME           │ STATE   │ CHECKS │ REGION │ ROLE │ IMAGE                          │ IP ADDRESS                     │ VOLUME │ CREATED              │ LAST UPDATED         │ PROCESS GROUP │ SIZE

And SSH is still timing out:

▲ fly ssh console

Connecting to fdaa:9:a7a:a7b:1c4:e7a1:80d5:2... complete
Error: error connecting to SSH server: dial: connect tcp [fdaa:9:a7a:a7b:1c4:e7a1:80d5:2]:22: operation timed out

Note that I briefly also saw this error, but haven’t seen it again:
