No web interface

[PetrusMax]

I have been running birdnetpi for several months successfully. Tonight I accidentally deleted some folders in "birdsongs" and now I dont have the web interface anymore. Only a black screen and limited file structure is shown.

The analyser is still working and uploading results to birdweather, but I can’t see the web interface locally.

How to fix ?

Ouch... ~/BirdSongs/Extracted is the webroot directory, so you lost all your symbolic links to ~/BirdNET-Pi/scripts. You can copy/paste the script below (stolen from install_birdnet.sh`) and put it into a new .sh file and then run it to hopefully recreate the symbolic links and fix your installation.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

source /etc/birdnet/birdnet.conf
