Re: [phenixbb] Project info lost after a disk crash

Hi Billy, Thanks for the instructions. I could not find the database info for all projects, no such a /Phenix directory under my home directory. I was able to restore the individual project history by the pool-down menu, projects-import project, and then browse for the directory for the project, because files in the .phenix subdirectory are ok.

Hi Huiying,

There are 2 sources of database information, one containing information about all the projects (usually located in <home directory>/Phenix), and one for each project containing information about the project (the one you found located in the .phenix directory of each project). Were you able to recover the database about all the projects (<home directory>/Phenix)? If not, you can import each project into the GUI to rebuild that information. To do so,

1) Select "Projects" from the top menu bar 2) Select "Import project" from the menu 3) Provide the root directory of the project. This would be the directory above .phenix (e.g. <project directory>/.phenix).

If your .phenix files for each project are corrupted, this will not work. In that case, let me know and it may be possible to rebuild those files manually if only certain files got corrupted Thanks!

Hi,

The hard drive of our major Linux computer crashed recently. After installing a new disk and recovering all the data in the damaged disk I lost all the project information in PHENIX GUI home page. I noticed that under .phenix directory there are files like project_db.pkl, but do not know how to retrieve the old project info into the GUI.

Thanks in advance for your help.
