I accidently deleted one of my video libraries.

Have a a 2 week old copy of the data directory containing the library.db, library.db-shm and library.db-wal

Can I just replace the current file with the backup copy, one or all ?

Hi, is that all you have for a backup?

I am in the process of performing a full restore from a tape backup, fingers crossed

Did you remove all your files from storage?

I just restored emby from a tape backup. I getting an error in a red box Exception of type 'SQLitePCL.pretty.SQLiteException' was thrown. 

I notice that if I scroll down thru the libraries, a few are empty.

The web interface shows:

Hi, please attach the main emby server log as well. It is the one that starts with embyserver. Thanks.

I tried deleting the library shm and wal, then copied a library file from a December backup.

Now it appears to have corrected the SQL error and all folder files are displayed correctly.

What is wrong now is when in the config menu the libraries appear as shown below. The pic is not displayed and that icon upper right ?

When viewing the main screen, all those in the home category are blank with the upper rt logo. 

Scanning thru the movies a couple of them also are blank with the upper rt logo, although most videos appear as they should.

I fell asleep for a few hours, woke up, restarted emby and everything is great. Problem resolved. Replacing a backup library file and deleteting the other 2 library files, taking a nap is the cure.

Thank you all
