Attention King James Pure Bible Search Users:
I just discovered that my EC2 (elastic computing cloud) server spot
instance that was hosting the KJPBS WebChannel and MediaDrop servers was
outbid and got terminated this evening.
I'm working on recommissioning a new server and getting it rebuilt, but
I don't know yet how long that will take or what data might have been
lost since the last backup was made. The disk volume is still floating
out in cyberspace, so I'm hoping I can at least pull the outstanding
data from it as I rebuild it, assuming that I can't just move it to the
new server.
So in simpler terms, the KJPBS WebChannel and MediaDrop websites will be
unavailable until I get the server rebuilt -- hopefully within the next
24 hours, but it may take several days to get it back running. Sort of
bad timing with it being Easter weekend when many people will want to
read and search the scriptures, but on the positive side, since I have
Good Friday off work, I can use the time to get the server rebuilt.
The main http://www.PureBibleSearch.com/ website, however, is still up
and running and is unaffected by this outage. You should still be able
to download the installers for all supported operating systems without
any issues and install and run KJPBS on your own computers. The outage
only affects the live websites of KJPBS WebChannel, KJPBS VNC, and the
MediaDrop Video Server.
I will send another notice when the server is back in operation. Pray
for a speedy recovery of the website, and have a great Easter Weekend.
God Bless,
Donna
