How to get rid of this annoying error of a standalone application on every weekend?

The last similar questions on this forum stayed without any attention:

Yeah, the weekends so far are semi useful for us jforex users/programmers. I get : old data on charts, server won't run backtests, gaps in the backtest chart data, any problem possible can happen on the weekend if we need to look at charts or backtest, then on monday its like "what problem" everything magically works again.

Except we've wasted an hour finding that the problem is the server , not our strategy or settings, and time we allocated to programming and testing the strategy on a saturday or sunday now can not be used till monday when we have something else scheduled to do. :roll:

Ive called customer support on the weekend about this, but the only people there are "customer support" who can't fix technical problems, and the technical people are off course back in on monday.

Very annoying, I know they would have less staff or no technical staff on the weekends, but I can't see why the server doesn't just keep doing what it is designed to do on saturdays and sundays, theres not even any live prices or trading going on to take care of, how hard can that be for a financial services server to not crash or give bad data across a huge 2 days stretch? Really?
