I am profundly sorry for the recent cut. (72 hours)
All is back on track now, without dataloss.
It was NOT hacked. Simply... deleted by my host.

Even if you saw the wiered parking domain page full of ads, the domain was not lost, simply a DNS, but I don't understand why they redirected to that page. There is a machanism that I don't understand.
This kind of page normally appears when a domain has been bought by speculators.
Don't worry I never lost the domain.

My VPS host is Linode.
I am usualy very happy with them, but their robots did a ugly bug, because I changed bank account and they charged me on the old card.
Since 2 months I am paying with new CB without problem, but a past payement of June made the problem.
They even didn't tried to charge on my new CB registered on their back-end which is working, and automatic.

The bank told them the payement of June was fraudulent.
So they closed my account very fast, without taking contact with me. (They pretend to have sent emails)
I didn't received any notifications from them, I need to investigate this part, because in facts they did noticed me in the web support. Simply no email recieved.
But after 96 hours without answer, they literraly deleted my whole account !!! LOL
I try to be compensated from them.


Normally I get 1 month for solving an outbalance. In this case, they considered a fraud, so the robots deleted it all, without taking care.
Does the banks having more power than the website owners ?

They burned disk images for my 6 servers (not only Cook Self Service), so I could get it back very fast, hopefully.
But if I would be on holidays, it could have been dramatic.
If this would have happened 1 day before the prejudice was HUGE for me because one of my clients was running an hosted app that day. An application that was written specificaly for beeing used that day.
I usualy visit the back-end very often (minimum once a week), and I never got noticed EVEN on the back-end page when I open it.

And after reinstallation of my account, I had to wait other 24h for my password to work. They couldn't solve that either.
Anyone has already faced such similar problem before ?

Linode has a good support, and I like them, so I am not gonna change for anything else (probably be worst), so I recommend it anyways.
But sometime we need to be very carefull about the robots... and the banks. The two mixed together is a nightmare. It takes control of our lives.

I jumped and started to work on a demo component... but 2 days later this demo component became the real component. I just showed today the end result to my customer and he turned to me and said... "this is more than I expected"... All of this is because Cook did cut about 70% of my work and provided me more ways to improve the usability of the component. The end result was 17 tables all related between than to generate a full dashboard for the travel agents. Thanks for Cook developers for such great tool. This component would not be possible to be done at short time with all the features in it
