Hey, I've spent the past few months working on a Minecraft server I made in an LXC container. I know that sounds silly but 2 months of coding/building/configuring something I was going to attempt to make a profit off of just gone is my worst nightmare. I made no backup of the container, and deleted it thinking it was a different container. (entered the container number and everything)


What can I do? Is there anything I can do to recover it or am I going to be starting over from scratch?
 
Unless you want to pay a company a decent amount of money to attempt and recover your data, you need to start from scratch.

Take this as a lesson learned and backup your data. All it takes is to click a few buttons to have scheduled backups. If you're not backing up your data than you aren't putting value into your time.
 
Yup, doing that now. I had most of the code on github but everything else is gone :( Thanks for the reply
