Dears,
I still have to verify this but it seems that there's a bug in custom track 
handling.
It happened that some users had hundreds of tracks on a local mirror. Some of 
those tracks were bigWig pointing to another web server. Due to maintenance the 
secondary web server (hosting the bigDataUrl) has been switched off. The users 
received this message:

Error(s): Custom track error (Couldn't connect to 
host001.instruments.ifom-ieo-campus.it 80 
): removing custom tracks

I was expecting only bigWig to disappear but all their tracks were deleted from 
user session and couldn't be restored.
Next week I'm going to test this on an alternate web server hosting bigWig (or 
any other bigData), meanwhile I would like to know if there is any procedure to 
rollback users custom track to the last working configuration.
I've tried to track users hguid and hgsid, to copy the "content" content in SQL 
but nothing changes.

Thanks
