I don't know why the host had the site down. Maybe Romanos has news from them?

Edited to add that I didn't have an updated email list past March so I did not send out an email...today I sent one to those who had over 20 posts saying the site is back up.

We have a Facebook page for Christianity Haven that will have updates posted there so please Like the page.

I will try to make it a habit of building the email list monthly so I'm prepared when this happens and can let members know. If members have checked that they don't want emails from the Admins then they won't receive one.

A post of mine is gone. Just a run of the mill post for me, so no biggie.

I've informed our host about the missing posts. The reason for the downtime was a corrupted DNS.

For English speakers:

Domain Name Servers (DNS) are the Internet's equivalent of a phone book. They maintain a directory of domain names and translate them to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.

Thanks. My posts went missing after the site came back online (I created them after we came online and then I logged off and returned and noticed them missing).

The DNS problem still seems to be intermittent. It's almost as if it was fixed but only part of the way. Roughly 1/3 of the time I try to access the site I get a "server not found" error.

It's all news to me. I did notice that the site was down last Wednesday (my time) but then my internet died and did not come back to life until the following Monday night after 21:00 (my time). I would have missed the emails and all the other excitement. But since my internet returned the only CH trouble I've had is that the site is sometimes slow compared to other sites.

I get a few issues periodically where instead of getting the CH page I expected I get a generic page from my ISP saying the site couldn't be found. I think it's more the ISP being useless than a problem with CH - it usually passes after a while. It doesn't affect larger sites (Amazon, Faceache etc) but also usually doesn't affect CH for more than a few minutes.

We live in different countries so it's safe to say we are not using the same ISP.

Every morning I try to access the site I am prevented from doing so for 10 minutes or more. Always "server not found". Then I can get access. No other problems on any other sites. It's definitely not *my* ISP.

This post - for the last 5 minutes prior to this post I was getting "server not found" errors. I check this site multiple times a day and this error comes up frequently. It is not a problem for hours like before, but I do get the error every day.
