This was an issue at the hosting company, the systems in Canada turned off my server in France due to some new billing software they have started to use that is broken. Someone in Canada did not pay, but the server ID was the same in both countries. Apparently, the new system works internationally when it did not before.
All sorted now and they are very very sorry.
Is it not possable to build our own ubuntu server.:dance:
Up until this server I have always built my own servers then shipped them to the datacentres for installation.
The thing is that the parts for servers are expensive and they need replacing every 2 years. This current server would cost £5800 if it was pre built or about £4000 for the parts to build it.
So although the hosting costs thousands of pounds per year it does include the hardware upgrades, off site backups, and DDOS protection. The server is on a 1 GBs connection and will allow simultaneous downloads at 500MBs.
And if your next question is "do we really need this?" then the answer is yes. Google now indexes this website about every 5 minutes and other search engines do the same several times per day. This means we are number 1 in the search engines and get lots of organic traffic. We have had times in the summer where the server has been running at 85% load and that is with twin 8 core Xeon server CPU's
