What does your metadata file say? (e.g. zless mirror_metadata.<date>.snapshot.gz, then search for that file) If all the files are still there you could either manually edit your metadata file or move the directories around so they are in sync. I don't know how this could have happened in the first place though. -- Ben Escoto
