Site not working after import

[bonsaiko]

Hello,

 

I was making some tests and I accidentally deleted the categories in the database. 

But before doing that, I had made a backup of prestashop.

 

So when I realised that the site was broken, I imported my backup. 

 

But Prestashop is not working... 

When I go to categories in the admin, it loops and never displays the page. 

And when I import new cdategories with the import modules, the categories are not displayed in the sitemap on frontend. It looks as if it was empty. 

 

And finally I have an error message when trying to go to "products" in the admin.

 

I really do need some help...

 

Thanks

What is the error in the products admin?

 

You did some weird things to get to that point. I am guessing that your backup didn't override the whole database...Did you just restore some tables or was it a full backup restore??

 

How did you restore? Manually?

 

Best regards,

 

Martin.

Hello Martin,

Yes i realize I did big mistakes but I thought it would be fixed after restore...

To restore I did as explained in ps admin: I deleted everything and imported my sql backup...

First I got an error message so I redeleted and imported in 2 bits and it worked fine.

But my ps site is not working ok.

I really need some help.

Can you help me?

I don't know, you don't have a backup with your host (Server admin)? Usually your host should have a backup too...might be easier than debugging.

I have the backup that I downloaded from prestashop before doing my silly things.

This backup should be ok don't you think?
