I have a mounted a partial disk on my Ubuntu VPS.

After a reboot the disk will be unmounted.

I can remount it manually but it keeps unmounting after rebooting the VPS and this stops the cron jobs I use for making backups.

In /etc/fstab I added the line: 

https://[mylink].stackstorage.com/remote.php/webdav/ /var/stack davfs user,rw,noauto 0 0

[mylink] = my own stack storage name.

The url is correct. If I open it then it asks for my credentials and gives back an "Ok" status.

I don't use users on my VPS; I do everything as root (not sure if this could be the issue).

I have followed this tutorial to set up my partial disk (sorry it's in Dutch).

try to add _netdev and remove noauto to your /etc/fstab entry.
Example:

https://[mylink].stackstorage.com/remote.php/webdav/ /var/stack davfs user,_netdev,rw 0 0

From the Manual Page:

_netdev
          The filesystem resides on a device that requires network access (used to prevent
          the system from attempting to mount these filesystems until the network has been
          enabled on the system).


noauto - The filesystem will NOT be automatically mounted at startup, or when mount passed -a. You must explicitly mount the filesystem.
