Wondering if a volunteer could go to the physical location necessary to restore service. If it's in Athens Greece, I can make the trip.

Edit: The server is located in Azores, the flight would cost 415eur, I cannot afford that, maybe someone in Portugal could help?

Is it in a data centre or someone's house? If the latter, would they let a stranger in?

Surely they would need a backup and replicate db to so in case of hardware failure they switch over.

Sounds like they could improve their setup.

Too much of a single point of failure.

Probably quite expensive, and when doing something as a hobby it's often hard to get the funds.
