Hello there proffessional users. While trying to get my pm2 to work so that my dspace can startup without me having to start it manually in the terminal, I ended up deleting the dspace-angular and recloning it from github but now i cant seem to access the communities and books that were previously created. 

I checked the database to make sure the communities and books were still there and thankfully all 11 communities and 238 books are still there. I made sure to fix up my config files before running yarn install and yarn build:prod but I still cant seem to access the communities or books on the user interface even when logged in as an admin.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yours Sincerely, 

Wanangwa Nyirenda

Hi Wanangwa

Have you tried rebuilding the discovery index? 

bin/dspace index-discovery -b

@Sean
Thank you sir. This was just what I needed. It took me a while to get it working coz I made some mistakes when restarting it but I got it to work.
