Does anyone know where to download the luup files that come as default for the DigitalSecurityCamera (all of them I- D- etc) as I have deleted them by mistake (what an idiot) and do not want to re-flash. I thought I could retrieve from a backup but only files in /etc/cmh-ludl are restored not /etc/cmh-lu. doh! Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Here are some of the files with the name listed.

If you have accidentally deleted a file that is part of the flash image (say, /etc/cmh-lu/foo), you can recover it on VeraLite (probably Vera3) via ssh.

cd to /overlay/etc/cmh-lu and run ls -l. You will see the deleted files are symbolic links to “(overlayfs whiteout)”. Just remove the symlink (rm foo) and the file will return.

This works because overlay filesystems can’t actually delete the file from flash. The best they can do is hide it.

Edit: highlighting commands. Vera2 does this a different way: you need to edit the /etc/cmh-lu/META file.
