Plone 4 site is up, but it’s not responding - plone

I have a Plone 4 site at http://tinakellyrussell.com/ However, when you go to the site, it stalls for a while and then times out. (This even happens when connecting via IP address, so it’s not a DNS issue.) It’s hosted on an Amazon EC2 instance, and if I connect via SSH and use “plonectl status” the result is:
instance: program running; pid=788
Restarting Plone (or the EC2 instance itself) doesn’t seem to help. It’s been running fine for years, I didn’t make any changes or updates when it started failing. I don’t know what the problem is :(

AWS Workspaces with NordVPN - Status Unhealthy

I've got an AWS Workspace (Windows 10) running in N. Virginia and installed NordVPN on it.
I'm trying to use NordVPN to change my location so I can access certain geo-restricted websites in Chrome while on my Workspace.
When I turn on NordVPN and connect to Atlanta (for example), after a few minutes the Workspace status changes to "Unhealthy" and eventually disconnects automatically.
I believe this is because the AWS Workspaces monitoring service can no longer see my Workspace, and thinks it's offline or something.
I also tried to use NordVPN's "Split Tunnelling" feature to only protect traffic going through the Chrome Browser application, but as soon as I turn that on my Workspace is disconnected immediately requiring a reboot.
Is there any way I can configure my Workspace to allow the Workspace monitoring service to still reach my Workspace when the Workspace has a VPN connection? Or, has anyone been able to use a Workspace with NordVPN's Split Tunneling on the Chrome Browser application?
I also tried the NordVPN Chrome Extension, but that doesn't work either.
Thanks

Restart VM Instance in Google Cloud After Clicking "Stop"

I am having a mild panic attack and could use some help.
I was emailed by Google telling me I need to change my machine type in my VM Instance. So I logged in, it told me I needed to stop the instance to make that change. I stopped the instance and then realized I'm not using the deprecated F1-Micro, so I just hit Play to restart the instance.
It restarts, has the reassuring green symbol, but my wordpress site can't be accessed.
I tried connecting via SSH and it seems like the data is there, I can navigate to the wordpress folder.
Can someone please advise on what I need to do to get the site running?
Thanks!
EDIT: More Info
Checking status of NGINX server shows it is "active (running)"
When visiting the web address, it loads for a very long time and then goes to an error page that just says "This site can't be reached the site took too long to respond. try checking connection and the proxy and the firewall. ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT"
I found the issue.
The Google documentation suggests your IP address will remain. Whether that is standard or not, my IP address changed, so once I updated my DNS records I was back online.

Wordpress not working after changing instance type on Google Cloud Platform

I changed my VM instance from "F1-micro" to "E2-micro". When I then restarted my machine, I couldn't access my webpage using the domain name, the webpage just shows an "Error 521" code - showing that my browser is working, CDN is working but the host has an erorr. When I paste the VMs IP address into my webpage, however, it show's the "Apache2 Debian Default Page".
Can somebody please help me with this?
The Error 521 message is caused by one of two situations:
First, check whether your WordPress site’s server is down. Even if everything else is configured properly, if your WordPress site’s server is offline, Cloudflare simply won’t be able to connect.
Second, your web server might be running fine but blocking Cloudflare’s requests. Because of how Cloudflare works, some server-side security solutions might inadvertently block Cloudflare’s IP addresses.
Cloudflare is a reverse proxy, all the traffic coming to your origin server will appear as if it’s coming from a small range of Cloudflare IPs (rather than each individual visitor’s unique IP address). Because of that, some security solutions will view high traffic from a limited number of IP addresses as an attack and block them.
Please check this link out in order to fix error 521 for Cloudflare and WordPress.
Turns out this problem was caused by my having installed the Debian Apache server package and it is causing collisions between it and the Apache shipped in the stack. Bitnami Stacks are completely self-contained and run independently of the rest of the software or libraries installed on your system.
So to fix this, all I had to do was run the following commands:
sudo systemctl stop apache2
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart

Issue with intranet site

We have a lamp word press intranet site running, however, the first time I load the site it doesn't load and says the page cannot be displayed. When I refresh the site it loads. Is this a problem with our server or dns or what?! We have no proxy and sometimes get this error message as well ERR_CONNECTION_RESET. Any ideas?
I suppose the best way forward is to first figure out which part of the process is failing, browser, computer or web server.
Determine the most likely point of failure
If the fault occurs on more than one computer, and with different browsers then it not likely to be browser or computer issue. Therefore the next step is to look at the webserver.
if it looks like a computer or browser issue
If its only failing on one computer or browser the try flushing your browser cache, if that fails then it could be a network setup issue. You could try setting you computers DNS network settings to point to your internet router and to your web servers IPs.
if it seems like a web server issue
1) Check settings of your network, try setting DNS to router and webserver.
2)If you have a spare computer install fresh webserver and try using new test webserver to see if you get the same problems
and if all else fails get windows PC install WAMP;) or the ultimate solution switch it off and go the pub.

Trouble reaching client website from my computer with traceroute

I've been working on a client site for a few months now and I'm suddenly having a lot of trouble accessing it.
Chrome tells me:
This webpage is not available
Google Chrome's connection attempt to [client] was rejected. The website may be down, or your network may not be properly configured.
The website is available on any other computer, whether on the same wireless connection or not.
My traceroute shows a hop to localhost and then it stops. Interestingly enough, if I remove the "www" the site loads, and the traceroute without www works normally.
I've tried resetting my wireless adapter. I've tested this on multiple wireless networks and it just does not work on my computer.
I had this problem a few nights ago and it mysteriously worked for about a day and then the problem resumed this morning.
I do not have any proxy settings in Chrome. I've tried cycling the adapter, renewing the lease, and trying other routers. Just now, I also tried on ethernet and the problem persists. The problem also persists over users and browsers.
I don't notice any other sites affected. I am currently using a Mac. If I use Parallels to use Windows, it has no problem connecting to the site or tracing properly.
Does anyone have any troubleshooting suggestions?
Have you tried to flush the routing table on your machine?
/usr/bin/sudo /sbin/route flush
