updated:
edit /vz/private/[vbox#]/etc/init/ssh.conf,
comment off oom never:
#oom never
reboot the vps, it shall work :)
or else, try alternative below:
---------------------
there is a way to solve this..
1st, create a file in /etc/init.d/sshstart
fill it up with:
sh /etc/init.d/ssh start
then run
/sbin/vzctl runscript [vps container #] /vz/private/[vpscontainer#]/etc/init.d/sshstart
if you get any error, this might give you lead on how to solve it.
but as for my condition, i found the problem in the /var/log/daemon.log to refer to:
init: ssh main process (21717) terminated with status 255
Failed to spawn ssh pre-start process: unable to set oom adjustment: Operation not permitted
Someone suggested that the issue is because the ssh is not launched after network, therefore to fix it, you will need to edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and enable the line ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
But in my case, it didnt work. so ive done a work around to start it via vzctl.
If you dont know your vps container #, its in
ls /vz/private/
