Since some time in late 2017, the KoBo Toolbox installation at kobo.msf.org developed availability problem, as one of hosts in KoBo, KoboCAT at https://kc.msf.org becomes unresponsive, rendering many other functions of the site (not residing on kc) unaccessible.

As a temporary solution, the mechanism of automatic recovery was implemented locally on host server gatitux, in the following manner:
