Log4OM

It finally happened : hard disk broke. Everything lost.

Having followed backup suggestion I have DB AND SETTINGS in several copies both locally and on the cloud.
For DB recovery no problem : took the last xxx_backup.sqlite, renamed, and here all my precious QSOs back again!
Quite different the settings recovery : the config.json taken from various backups and substituted to the original
in the C:\Users\I0MOM\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\user was never used by log4om which always start with the old copy that I modify with the configuration settings of log4om.

Quite annoying since the parameters are many and memory (with the years) start to fails ...

Marco,

Have you looked in the "current" User Guide starting on Page 281?

It is titled: Emergencies

Hi Nolan,
Thank for the suggestion.

I read the paragraph You suggested. It relate to cloning log4om installation.
If we have to treat Recovery as a limit case of cloning, the the suggested recovery procedure : saving database and config.json seems not be sufficient and You have to save and substitute the entire content of the directory:
C:\Users\I0MOM\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\user.

Good to know for next crash !
