Accidentally removed files from server directory - how to get things working?

    Hi,

    Ok, I messed up - I accidentally did a rm * on the /usr/local/ispconfig/server/ directory and now I can't get things quite back to status quo. Here's what I've done:

    Copied back all files from my ispconfig backup - Tried running server.sh and it complained about missing config.inc.php - I used the boilerplate config.inc.php and filled in the DB fields

    this "seemed" to get things working - server.sh now runs again and it says it is processing records, but it actually doesn't do anything (i.e. I am not getting all the debug messages I used to get, no DB/filesystem/FTP etc. is actually being created nor removed on the system)

    I am guessing I just need to tweak the config php some more - or that there are further missing files - I hope you can give me a rough heads up on what server.sh needs to do its job properly....

    Thanks!

    BTW - This is the kind of output I am seeing now:

    06.09.2010-14:20 - DEBUG - Set Lock: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/temp/.ispconfig_lock
    06.09.2010-14:20 - DEBUG - Found 2 changes, starting update process.

    06.09.2010-14:20 - DEBUG - Remove Lock: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/temp/.ispconfig_lock
    finished.

    It may not have been clear in my first post - but I restored the files in the server dir using fresh installation files - not a backup as I first wrote.

    I suspected that this was the cause of my problem - so I tried making a mirror of an existing (and working) installed server directory from another server to the one I messed up. This way I was sure I wasn't missing any files and that this would not be my problem.

    All I then did was I updated the config.inc.php so that the db password for user ispconfig was in order.

    But .... Same result. Server.php outputs the same as above (that is, it is processing records but gives no detail on operations as it used to, and outputs no errors)

    So I am in a situation where all the files that should be there are in order (I am almost 100% certain) and I cant really see anything besides the DB settings in config.inc.php that I would need to update - and those seem to be correct, otherwise server.php wouldn't pick up on the changes in the datalog.

    So what else is there.... Rights related issue maybe? I am getting a bit confused here ;)

    download ispconfig tar.gz, unpack it, run the update.php script and choose to reconfigure services during update.

    Thanks!

    Thanks till - as usual you are a champ.

    I was going to update to the SVN in anyway to solve the problem with sites_web_domain_add so this worked out perfectly.
