My shared host recently changed the IP of my server (the domain name has not changed). I didn't touch Piwik after the switch and it ran and tracked fine for about 30 days. Yesterday, I got a "SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002]" when trying to login to the Piwik admin interface. I guess that the old server IP was redirected to the new one for a month and this redirect has now stopped.
In consequence, I went into the config.ini.php and changed the host from the old to the new IP. On logging in, Piwik greetd me with the "Update your database"-page you usually get when updating the Piwik version. I clicked next, everything went through and the dashboard loaded. The problem now is, that all old logs/stats are gone. Piwik is tracking new visits fine and there are no obvious problems, but all my historic data seems to be lost. The database itself is still huge, indicating that the nothing has actually been deleted, but it's not being reported/accessed anymore.
Question: How do I get Piwik to recognize / use the full database, again?
