Thanks. I did have a backup (and regularly backup this box) but latest snapshot was a few hours old. As far as the data goes, the articles were still there. Somehow deleting the de.linkm.newsticker subtopic deleted all the topics and articles above it (including root topic). I was able to recreate a root topic and re link it in AIS, etc and everything is fine again. I would file a bug, but I cannot seem to recreate the problem. Since then I've tried to break it a few times (with prior mysql snapshots :-)) to no avail. Thanks again! Nico -- Marcelo N. Halpern, your favorite daemon.
