Has anyone lost anything since this inventory server migration? I have no acess to either my landmark or texture folders anymore. They are all greyed out. I won't even comment on how many textures I had from 3 years of building, but anyway. Just curious to know if anyone else had this happen as well, how common. If there is something posted saying somethng about it, that sort, thanks.

That would be this scheduled maintance day that is:

one odd but wonderful thing, they are available to me in the test client version of SL. So a bit of advice if you are missing inventory, then download the alternate version, its on the download page under the normal download button, bottom of the page. Whew, that almost gave me a total heart attack, hopefully that reconnect whatever came undone. I did also send in a ticket just now too.

k this is totally talking to myself here, I know that. I was messaged back by the Lindens, apparently this was a cache issue. So I reloaded up my cache and it was fine. Ths only reasn I am posting to another dead thread...I know how frustrating this can be, inventory loss. So if that's you, try clearing out your cache and relogging. It may help.

Loss? We Don't Have No Stinking Loss

For over a month when I log on my inventory is a crap shoot ... it floats between 1k and 5k short of what it should be. Finally had enough and spent the required 4+ hours in live chat, "yes I'll clear cache" "yes I'll go someplace quiet" "oh no problems with my network connection- that's so good to know" then I'm told to take everything off and clear cache again and relog ... ok .. ok so I put everything I'm wearing, huds hair jewelry shirt shoes etc into a new folder in a "clothing emergency" folder ... god damn don't you know it disappeared!!!!! honest to god - huds hair jewelry all gone - not an effing trace..... wait there is a trace- three live help people can "see" the missing items but can't do a bloody thing!!!

OK! live chat has run out of stuff they can do so it's on to a support ticket, go into great detail what has been covered, include the 4+ hours of chat (bulk of it was having me relog all over creation) wait the 48 hours and get a form email extolling the virtues of clearing cache and relogging in a quiet area.
