Is there a repair installation option? Accidentially deleted a folder.....

Permalink
I am new to Concrete and so far I love it. As I was deleted (via filezilla) my old site which was using traditional folders instead of databases like concrete, I accidentially deleted the /jobs file and now I get an error message when I run the Site Mainence feature:
Error: Invalid Jobs Directory /home8/(name of my site)/public_html/jobs

How can I get that back? I made a backup already. Should I reinstall concrete? Will it erase my previous site? Will it only install the components missing? Is there a repair installation tool I haven't found?

Thanks for the info!

there is no repair install routine. I would unpack the original download locally and just add the jobs directory back and see if that gets you back and runnning.

I used filezilla and uploaded only the JOBS folder and worked like a charm.

hi frz,
I have the same problem of deleting the poll mail job and looking to reinstall it and found your suggestion here. But when I downloaded C5, the Job directory is empty. I am not sure what I should do here. It will be great to get your help.
Thanks,
Vicky

Look inside the concrete folder. there is another folder called concrete after you unzip where the core jobs, models, controllers etc are.
