My /var/www/html/dav/Home.ics file disappeared yesterday (just before
noon) from my home server (F13.i686). My laptop (F14.x86_64) was online
at a remote location at the time, and thunderbird was open, and I was
reading emails via dovecot. I found the following entries in my
server's httpd/access_log:
www.203.238.22 - - [28/Dec/2010:11:56:23 -0500] "GET

This was within seconds of un-suspending my laptop from the
suspend-to-RAM state (after it had connected to one of the local WiFi
connections).
And if I look at the /var/www/html/dav directory on my server:
# ls -latr
total 48
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 12224 Sep 25 2009 home.ics.saved
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 12177 Sep 25 2009 Home.ics~
drwxr-xr-x. 2 apache apache 4096 Dec 28 11:59 .
drwxr-xr-x. 24 root root 4096 Dec 29 00:12 ..
It looks to me like my calendar disappeared just before noontime....
(the other files there are from the last time webDAV screwed up on me,
but at that time, 15 months ago, it was only a partial corruption of my
file.)
I didn't (intentionally) do it! How could it have disappeared?
What happened to my Home.ics calendar???? Is there somewhere's
else I can look for clues?
I didn't even notice this until just before midnight last night!
I have logs showing that it was working fine the day before....
