EC2 Public IPv4 address fails when trying to load the website.

Did the EC2 instance get restarted during the outage? If so the instance would have been allocated a new public IP which you would have to map to your domain and Elastic IP

If the above question did not apply, Check your security group settings to ensure that the security group allows public traffic, make sure to also check your subnet and Network Access Control List (NACL) settings on your VPC to ensure that they both allow public traffic.

Lastly you can also use the VPC Reachability Analyzer to test if your instance is reachable from a particular destination. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/reachability/how-reachability-analyzer-works.html

The instance did stop yes, and my EBS snapshot is 6 months old so unsure if iv lost 6 months of work due to Amazon, whats worse is, iv no understandng of the EC2 and how to code anything, I am not a web developer, my designers setup my Amazon at a considerable cost.

I am going to delete the UK site, it took me 10 years to build it, I am hoping i can retain the USA site, If i had my designers look at this it is going to cost, money i dont have, i am literally on the edge of being unable to continue.

Are there no Amazon tech support that can sort this, after all, this problem was caused by Amazon, they may have in effect killed 12 years of work and 1.7 million files, my complete lifetime of work on my gaming site.
