Hi,
Short status update on this. The cloud service provider providing the hosting
of these two servers has informed us that they are still facing challenges with
getting the new virtual machines up and running. This is caused by the large
number of affected machines that they need to re-create (we were not the only
one affected by this hardware failure). Therefore it is unlikely that we are
able to get the system back online today. We are also checking alternative
options like using another service provider or our own machine room in the same
capacity where CI and related development systems are running.
Yours,
Tuukka

Hi,
To explain a bit why I was mistaken about the online in the mail I sent last
night. We have a development feature that allows selecting the mirror manually.
I thought it could be used, but it turned out we had not released that version
of the installer. Would have been handy, but since it is not already released,
the best approach is to re-create the master. We are doing that now. We will
also have this feature in the installer released (after we can again make
releases), because it is sometimes handy to tell explicitly what server to
download from.
Yours,
Tuukka

Hi Tuuka,
The Online installer downloads files in 2 phases:
1. Retrieve metadata from download.qt.io
2. Retrieve actual binaries from the auto-selected mirror
Since Step #1 is blocked, it can't proceed to Step #2.
Regards,
Sze-Howe
