I have been renting and using an OVH Debian dedicated server for almost two years. I had to reboot it today for the first time in ~1.75yrs, because an app had a memory leak that prevented me from SSHing in.
Upon rebooting, all the files in /home/downloads are gone. However, in df, the hard drive still appears full from those files. It doesn't see the files, but it thinks the HDD is full.
What is going on? How do I recover the files? I tried Googling around for a while and filed a support ticket, but I don't think they will be able to help.
