I initially purchased 2.6.8 upgraded to 2.7.0 all my events were ok.
I then installed 2.7.0.e and all my events which took absolutely hours to setup have been wiped out - the events I had for v.2.6.8 are still intact all the new ones setup on 2.7.0a have gone.
I did backup before installing 2.7.0e - can I do a sql insert to put my events back?
What tables are affected?
If I roll back my site is there any way of upgrading without wiping my events?

I got the events back by dropping the tables on the live site 2.7.0.e and doing a sql insert of all the dt register tables from the 2.7.0a version.

The same thing happened to me. I uninstalled 2.7 and installed 2.7e and for some reason all my events were wiped out! Luckily I had backed up my tables and after some serious digging, I discovered that the table that holds my event data got seriously mangled, jos_dtregister_group_event.

I emptied that table and used the insert statements from my backup of that table and my events have returned.

I am really disappointed with this release. No matter what, I should not lose all my events on a bug fix upgrade.

Now I have to go through everything to see what else got messed up. So far I can't deploy my client's site because the bugs are a show stopper.

Guys... if you can provide database access through a ticket, I'd like to take a look and try to determine why this happened for you. It should not have. Thanks.
