I was hosting a web app developed in ASP.net MVC to Go Daddy hosting server. Once I have uploaded the files to /httpdocs
, I had to remove the files again from the host. Instead of deleting what is in the /httpdocs
folder, Accidentally I deleted some files in the Root Folder
. I created some folders similar to the deleted folders and uploaded my web app again. But now I cannot see the web app. I am getting an error saying;
500 - Internal server error.There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.
Can someone please tell me how to recover the deleted files again and host my web app. Thanks in advance.
If you find the need to restore a file or folder that has become corrupted or deleted, there is a built in history on Godaddy hosted websites. This is a quick way of restoring it.
Step 1: Log in to you Account Manager Godaddy Account
Step 2: Open you Web Hosting Go to the hosting control panel of the website that you are wanting to restore
Step 3: Click Manage Button Next to the hosting account you want to use - Click Manage
Step 4: Tools Under the Tools section look for File Manager - Click File Manager
Step 5: File Manager In File Manager click the Gear icon to the upper right. Select history view. This will give you the history of your files. You can pick what date you want to go back to by choosing the date from the calendar in the upper portion file manager.
