Recovering a deleted folder?

[arya6000]

Hello

I have worked on a site for weeks and today I accidentally deleted it since I thought I'm in a diffrent directory. I used the " rm -r www" commmand and everything is gone, Is there anyway to make it come back? my file system is ext3.

Thank You

The first thing you should do is umount that volume. The more time you have it mounted with write permissions, the less chance you are going to get anything back.

Then, google (from a livecd if needed) for this:

ext3 recovery deleted files

Do a search on "The coronor's toolkit" - It's written by the same gentleman who wrote tcpwrappers and has some good file recovery stuff in there.

That being said, take the aforementioned advice and isolate that disk (if possible) immediately.

Best of luck,

Mike
