Attachments missing

Over the weekend all images in our forum posts have gone. Only the file names remain - which display file not found when clicked.
69K error logs with critical errors saying the path to the attachment directory is lost.
Our admin haven't changed anything on the forum recently.

I'd be grateful for any advice on where to start to resolve this.

Not sure how to post an example as I'm getting a message saying I cannot post external links.

So, let's start with what version of SMF you're using? Are you using 2.1, and if so did you recently upgrade from 2.0?

2.1 RC2 installed about a year ago

Thank you

Kindred

well, for one you're running a RC which you need to keep updated -- for example,  2.1 RC4 has over 600 commits/fixes compared to RC2....

However, use repair_settings to put the correct attachment path and URL back in.

Please do not PM, IM or Email me with support questions.  You will get better and faster responses in the support boards.  Thank you.

Thanks for your reply
Is that the repair option in the Attachment directory paths? it says 'files missing (repair)'

Sorry I'm new to this and we've lost some admin support.
