database bug ?

[Norii]

Hi

I renamed my database and I don't know why but when I launched it just after I realised that I lost all my hand histories since july. How is this possible ? How can I find them ?
Really, I don't understand.


Thanks

I just tried to rename the database the same name it was but I have an error message telling me that I can't rename it like this because the file already exists or something like that. I'm lost

Please try to vacuum/analyze and reindex your database - http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/5/Database+Manager+%28Ribbon%29#maintenance

If you continue to have problems, try the following:

Try creating a new DataBase and import a small portion of your \HM2Archive so you can see if the problem exists in the new DB - http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/3091/How+to+create+a+new+database+and+import+previously +played+hands

If the new database seems to work properly, it sounds like your database might be corrupt. Please continue to use the new database and import the rest of your hands using the steps above. This is why regular backups are a good idea. If your database becomes corrupt you can restore a backup and only have to import the most recent hands (that were played after the backup was created) and edit any tournament results if necessary. I recommend keeping at least the most recent 2 or 3 backups in case the most recent one does not restore properly you can try the previous backup.
