Is there any advantage to using this over a traditional server driven CRON job?

For those that can not get this to run on your server because of the settings... if you server allows you to run CRON jobs I have a page that can help you program your own CRON jobs to back up your MySQL databases here:

No worry, there is no adult content on there ;)

Oh yea, that is one of my sites I have not upgraded to vB yet too...

I'll see what I can do. That is something that I've never done and will need alot of research and testing before I can insert that addon to this hack.

Wonderful addon, you got my vote in the poll for sure.

I've got one little feature request which I'm sure of that there will be others who'd like it as well; maybe you can add it so you can specify the max. number of backups you want to keep stored. I, and I'm sure I'm not alone, am on a shared hosting so I haven't got "unlimited" space, therefore I'd love to see a feature to simply have 3 backups at all time; when a new one is made the last one could be deleted to make room.

Keep up the great work and hopefully you'll add it ;)

Installed it but my host has exec disabled. :(

Installed and running now. When I run it though my site slows to a crawl, a lot of timeouts and such.

How long does it take to make a backup? (1gig sql uncompressed db here)
Can I stop it halfway through somehow?

EDIT: Also, I only see how to make this run Every X Time. Is there a way to say run at 5am GMT+1 every day, for example?

EDIT2: Alright it seems the lag was caused because the script ran 3 SQL Dumps at the same time. Every time the server admin tried to kill one it started over again. Any idea why this happened? The script was set to run once every 23 hours.

Tralala

Agreed, great idea. As it stands now I'll probably have to manually clean out the backup folder from time to time.

I also think it's a good idea to suggest putting a simple index.html file in File Dump Path... otherwise in the off-chance someone guesses the backup directory name, they'd be able to download all of the forum backups simply by navigating to it in their browser.
