Missing png pictures on Global Administration page

Hi All

I recently installed xwiki on debian server and initially this was fine
But then I noticed on Global Administration page icons appearing broken link

Is anyone has experienced this before ?

Those icons were working before or they never worked and it’s just the first time you went to the administration UI ?

It was working fine in the beginning
One thing I noticed is , after adding users and user groups the wiki went to that initial initializing mode one day and after that it became messy.

Interesting thing is, just the figures were affected

Is there a way to reset the flamingo files ?

thanks

Feels like you lost your permanent directory which contains among other things the status of the init and the attachments. Maybe you forgot to configure it (in xwiki.properties) to a stable directory in which case in ends up in application server work directory (which is supposed to be temporary).

would add the working directory on xwiki.properties would fix it now ?

It won’t happen again but you won’t get back what you lost which is not great because there is some important stuff used during upgrades.

“Maybe you forgot to configure it (in xwiki.properties) to a stable directory in which case in ends up in application server work directory (which is supposed to be temporary).”
– How it can be done ? Is it required post-install step ?

I ended up re-installing and its working fine now
Thanks @tmortagne for your help
