<br />
Somehow it seems ispconfig deleted all my website files.<br />
<br />
I have numerous websites located in /var/www/web*. After emptying the trash folders in the ispconfig admin backend and running &quot;repair database&quot; I found that all my websites were reduced to their default status with a single index.html file and an &quot;error&quot; folder. No trace of any files whatsoever <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:" /><br />
<br />
Luckily I have backups of all sites, but I&#039;m still confused - any ideas how I could...<br />
