Recover Spiceworks Database?

[peterrichardson2]

So my Spiceworks box has fallen over, as in to say the harddrive simply will no longer boot, and as it was only ever supposed to be a test (but carried on being production) there are no backups.

I’m trying to recover files from the HDD but wanted to know if there is a way to recover the spiceworks data to move it to a new install on a properly virtualised and replicated server?

Any help would be great!

If you can grab the db and data folders from the Spiceworks directory, that’s all you need. Install Spiceworks on the new machine, stop service, overwrite the folders, start.

Thanks Bryan!,

I’ll see what I can do
