As always, I did a search but turned up nothing... while building my site recently, the server wnet down. When the server came back on line, I found that my links were no longer working. It seems as if the links database was corrupted.
I need to know how to restore the most recent backup of the databases!!
If that doesn't work, i'll need additional help sorting out the problem, but I'm hoping restoring the backups will so the trick... PLEASE HELP!!!! :\

THANKS!

Uh...Just rename your links.db.bak file to links.db and upload the file to the directory where you have the links.db file. Then change the permission of the file to 666 (rw-rw-rw-).

Restoring databases from backup files has been discussed before.

Yes, I figured it had been touched on previously, but I looked through the FAQ/Resources, as well as did a search on the board for "restoring links backup" which turned up nothing related.
Anyway...
I did as you suggested (although links2 names things differently) and it seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks!
