linodeusercontent.com:9090 refusing to connect after complete shutdown and power on to reset password.

I tried to reset the password as well as to add a ssh key. To reset the password, the linode needs to be powered down completely. After booting up, I cannot access my airflow service at port 9090 anymore.
Any idea where the problem could be?

What probably happened was whatever service was running on port 9090 stopped after the reboot. You can think of this like most other services on your desktop or laptop-- if you do not specifically instruct an application or service to run upon boot, they usually do not.

I would recommend using something like systemctl to start/restart your airflow service:

Then try connecting again. If you are still experiencing connection issues for that application, then I would check your firewall settings. Some information on configuring your firewall can be found here:
https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/configure-firewall-with-ufw/

If neither of those solve your issue, I would recommend checking your compute instance's log files:

I hope that helps!
