wagoneer Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) The http://dodgepilothouseclub.org site returns a 404 now for all pages. Seems it's finally down. I did download the whole site awhile back in case of just this situation. Is there any other archive online? I can post it somewhere. Thinking .... of a suitable persistent place.

Merle Coggins Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 I contacted Bob Koch about it a week or 2 ago. He wasn’t aware it was down but was going to dig into what happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagoneer Posted November 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) The domain may be paid up but is the hosting provider paid through? It’s a lot of data so would be tedious to upload in the normal files way through a very valuable resource Edited June 20, 2023 by wagoneer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution wagoneer Posted December 26, 2022 Author Solution Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 I am hosting a mostly-complete copy of the old pilothouse site here -> https://d1c1t090laorfk.cloudfront.net I only realized that my scrape of the site wasn't complete once I started clicking around, but there are about 2.5 gb worth of data. The original site is still showing a Page not found error. I'd be glad to host the complete set if I can access it, and if somebody who owns the domain wants to repoint it please get in contact.

Merle Coggins Posted June 21, 2023 Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 I have not heard anything more from Bob. I suspect it may be lost forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBNeal Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 I have attempted to reach out to Bob on the FB page, messenger, and his gmail multiple times over the last few months and cannot get his attention...last Saturday it looks like I missed him by 6hrs as he posted a warning for FB page participants to stay on topic. I'm going to keep trying tho, this resource was his project that he should be able to assist in its restoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_Koch Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 The site was hacked and many of the files corrupted but some were saved. I'll see what I can get to JB and they can be posted on this site. I'm not going to continue the web site as it would take to much to recreate it.

P15-D24 Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 Bob, Thanks for the update. Keeping the hackers at bay is a full time job. Any original files you have would be very helpful and I'm happy to host here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was nice enough to send me the source files, and my plan is to begin uploading the files onto a reserved corner of this site within the coming weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagoneer Posted August 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 @JBNeal I’m curious about the economics of this site. Does it get enough ad revenue to pay the hosting and traffic costs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
