The IT Articles for in User Portal. I have since recovered those as well. I unzipped the latest backup into my Spiceworks folder and it didnt extract all files just folders and some files. I have since then just did a copy and pasted the Data and DB folders and all is up and going again.<\/p>\n

This sounds like “Server Busy” errors to me. Check out this how-to and see if any of the fixes work for you. They helped me, but I can’t get them completely gone. Just reduced to a minimum.

Also, you are correct in restarting the Spiceworks application. It’s the only way to get back up and running (aside from restarting the server itself).

you could also try doing a full backup of your install [Settings → Backup Configuration] & then uninstall, reboot & reinstall the latest stable 5.2.75667 release. restore settings from backup & go again.
