I have unknowingly deleted my folder containing json files using rm command on ubuntu 12.04 server. I tried using "scalpel" tool but it does not work for Json files. Is there any other way by which I may recover my lost data.

I also tries "testdisk" but it throws the error:

/proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs error

You can try extundelete. If the data is important then create a disk image and a copy of that image and work on the imagecopy only. The more you try to recover data on a running system, the higher the chances are that you destroy the data that is left on the disk.
