I am running the latest stable version of gnucash (1.4.10) on Mandrake
7.2. This morning after entering a months worth of data I tried to save
and got an error message saying that there was a problem saving the
file. A few seconds later a dialog pops up asking me to save the file
or renaming the file. I chose save and a prompt if I wanted to
overwrite the existing file. Seeing that it is the same file I chose
yes (unfortunately). I subsequently opened the file just to check if
everything was ok., it was not. My 5 years of financial data went into
the bit bucket. Gone, all of it. There are still log files and .xac
files, is there a way to rebuild the database, or get back my data from
these files? Please help -- that's a lot of data to loose. In case
anyone is wondering about the 5 years, I was a quicken addict and gave
up waiting for them to make a linux version of their software. I have
now switched to gnucash and I a'int looking back.
