Massimo, you should consider moving to slicehost, I have been running 3 separate slicehost servers for web2py, none of them have ever been down since I purchased the services.
Alternatively, if you want cloud hosting, rackspace provides excellent cloud servers in the same datacenters as slicehost. I agree, the issue has been with DNS and the hosting provider, there was not much that anyone else could have done other than stick it on another VPS temporarily. I also suggest adding a note explaining this situation at the top of web2py.com and web2py.com/book in big red letters with a grey background... at least the trolls will have to find something "else" to complain about. -Thadeus On Sun, Feb 28, 2010 at 8:59 AM, mdipierro <[email protected]> wrote: > You are right.
