what could cause the 'File Storage' configuration to be reset

happened the other day all setting were reset to a single local storage /upload directory but can't find out why/how

any ideas?

I can't think of anything that would reset your file storage configuration.

Did you probably import a DB backup and only a DB Backup without syncing the files ?

nope no database work

i went to the site - it wasn't loading correctly - looked like no css etc

so went to acp>support, rebuilt the cache, site loaded but no images

looked at  file storage configuration - all reset to uploads

so guessing it must have been the cache rebuild that reset it 

if  file storage configuration table was corrupted would it have done that?

And what storage setting did you use? - ie where did you store your files?
Is the drop-down menu in the storage settings missing your setting?

using aws s3 

anyway all sorted, taking it as a one off glitch, if it happens again then will start worrying 

thanks
