Failed to load profile. After update

Due to your recent update I created a new virtualenv to install and run blockstack. For some reason, my old installation would not update nor really run after the attempts to update.

Now my profile fails to load. My recollection is that I transferred my id from onename to my local machine. How do I make blockstack lookup guy__l.id not look in Amazon for storage?

(blockstack) Guys-MBP:~ guy$ blockstack lookup --debug guy__l.id
Set BLOCKSTACK_DEBUG to 1
Re-exec as `"/Users/guy/blockstack/bin/python", "/Users/guy/blockstack/bin/blockstack", "lookup", "guy__l.id"`

Thank you.

You’ll need to create a new profile, sign it, upload it to a server, and then update your name’s zone file to point to that server. I made some notes on this a while back that might help: Registering a name on the command line

Thank you. I did read your link before my post.

Semantics here are somewhat of a barrier to completely understanding ids vs profiles vs storage in this ‘system’. Your example includes your own domain apparently.

Your answer brings more questions. Why, when it worked before, do I need to set up my profile again? Surely ids and profiles are more permanent than updates? (Of course, I know that ignorance is no excuse for user error.)

Thank you again for your response.
