I rebooted my vServer (Debian 8) and it doesn't came back up. Well, I used the rescue console on my server and the server seems to be running fine, except the network was broken. So I tried 'ifconfig' but nothing came up. So I tried to enable my interface with 'ip link set dev venet0 up' and 'ifup venet0:0' and now it appears in my ifconfig list:
root@i67svof:/# ifconfig
venet0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00

My HWaddr doesn't look that well :) 'ip addr' prints this result:
root@i67svof:/# ip addr
1: lo: <LOOPBACK> mtu 65536 qdisc noop state DOWN
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

These are the last lines in /var/log/syslog:

And finally my network config in /etc/network/interfaces
# Auto generated lo interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# Auto generated venet0 interface
auto venet0
iface venet0 inet manual
up ifconfig venet0 up
up ifconfig venet0 127.0.0.2
up route add default dev venet0
down route del default dev venet0
down ifconfig venet0 down
iface venet0 inet6 manual
up ifconfig venet0 add MYIPV6ADDR/64
down ifconfig venet0 del MYIPV6ADDR/64
up route -A inet6 add default dev venet0
down route -A inet6 del default dev venet0
auto venet0:0
iface venet0:0 inet static
address MYIPV4ADDR
netmask 255.255.255.255
Can anyone help me with this one? Thanks in advance!
