After a recent server reboot, when I went to the FA site, it showed the initial installation page again instead of login. I've gone into MySQL and can see all my tables with months of data there. With a back up of my database, I tried to go through the setup process on the front page, but that seems to empty the data base. How can I "recover" my data most straightfowardly?

Re: Fixed Asset Category Configuration and GL Accounts (4 replies, posted in Fixed Assets)
So after I've dug through everything this is what I have determined:
-The field labeled "Asset Account" is where you select the GL asset account that will hold the purchase value of the fixed asset.
-The field labeled "Sale Account" is where you select the GL income/revenue account you wish the revenue from the disposal of the asset to be recorded at the time of sale.
-The field labeled "Depreciation Cost account" is where you select the GL expense account for depreciation expense to be debited/recorded each time depreciation is run.
-The field labeled "Depreciation/Disposal Account" is where you select the GL contra-asset account for the accumulated depreciation to credited/recorded each time depreciation is run.

Topic: Fixed Asset Category Configuration and GL Accounts (4 replies, posted in Fixed Assets)
While setting up a fixed asset category, its unclear which specific GL accounts the names are referring.
I expected to find:
The Asset Account
The Contra Accumulated Depreciation Account
The Expense Account
The Gain/Loss GL Account
What I find instead are:
A Sales Account
An Asset Account
A Depreciation Cost Account
A Depreciation/Disposal Account
I've been trying to read the code, but not certain how these named accounts map to the accounts I would expect to see in a depreciation transaction or in an asset disposal transaction.
