I have followed the latest guide about changing the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file, and successfully set a static ip address, but then I can't reach the pi through ssh or a browser (it's a server). Any body else experience this?

As you know, networking configuration in Raspbian Jessie has moved to /etc/dhcpcd.conf .

Try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:

  1. Restart networking:

sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0

  1. Check if your interface is configured:

ifconfig

Does eth0 have the address you specified?

  1. Did you format the address in /etc/dhcpcd.conf with CIDR subnet mask notation, and does the subnet mask match your local area network (/24 is equivalent to 255.255.255.0):

static ip_address=10.0.1.59/24

?
