Due to data loss.. I am having to restore the repository. I restored the database and the alf_data folder and now alfresco refuses to start with the below error coming up. I even turned on FULL reindexing but it does not get till the point of starting re-indexing. It had authentication chain configured for passthru and I have even tried commented it out. Incidentally the node id refereed to here c56d9d41-38ae-4eea-adc1-d5be838b59b8 is not in the alf_nodes table. Wonder where this is coming from. I need to be able to recover as much as I can. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>This data is really critical to restore and bring up the alfresco installation. I will be thankful for any assistance. I have googled and also searched in this forum but dont find a solution.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Maruthi</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>06:15:53,522&nbsp; DEBUG [linkecm.audit.LinkecmAuditServiceImpl] onBOOTSTRAP</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>06:15:53,724 User:admin DEBUG [repo.jscript.ScriptLogger] Group:LINK_ADMINISTRATORS</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>06:15:53,756 User:admin DEBUG [repo.jscript.ScriptLogger] Grou Node:Node Type: {</SPAN><A href="http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}authorityContainer" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}authorityContainer</A><SPAN>, Node Aspects: [{</SPAN><A href="http://www.alfresco.org/model/system/1.0}referenceable" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.alfresco.org/model/system/1.0}referenceable</A><SPAN>]</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>06:16:00,226 User<img id="smileyfrustrated" class="emoticon emoticon-smileyfrustrated" src="https://connect.hyland.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-frustrated.png" alt="Smiley Frustrated" title="Smiley Frustrated" />ystem INFO&nbsp;

(linkecm.audit.LinkecmAuditServiceImpl)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Try disabling this extension (clean alfresco.war without AMPs and no customizations in the extension/ folder) before restarting. This way you should be able to perform a full reindex.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 23 Jul 2012 20:45:36 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/sos-need-help-restoring-backup-node-does-not-exist-error/m-p/268832#M221962 jonash 2012-07-23T20:45:36Z Re: SOS: need help restoring backup.
