[cobalt-users] complete site removed - but why??



Hello,

after copying and extracting the file "save.tar" into the directory
/home/sites/www.mydomain789.de/web I changed the user- and group-ownership
of all the virtual site's files.
Although the user did exist the user-ownership hasn't been changed. (As you
can see below I was too fast and missed that it didn't work...)
After changing the ownership I wanted to remove the file save.tar. I typed
"rm sa", pressed the "tab-key" and hit "enter" but the command (for which
reason ever?) didn't change to "rm save.tar".
Then I did an "ls -la" and was shocked that everything (files, link, v-site
directory) was removed.

Does anyone have an idea why the complete site was removed by this command?
It even doesn't appear in the cobalt-webinterface anylonger...
