You Lost connection to MySQL server during the cron. This could have been a number of things and not just this hack. Try running the script again. If the problem still continues then let me know. You might have to ask you host why this is happening. BTW, how big is your forum?

The weird part I had, was when I ran the task, I checked my folder. It has 2 files, 06-7-2006-error.txt and has a 06-7-2006-.sql......

What's that mean? My database wasn't backed up properly?

The 06-7-2006-.sql should be your database file. The error text is there to tell you if any errors occoured while backing up the system. How big is your 06-7-2006-.sql file?

I believe it is 25MB... which seems too small I think? The sql file says 0kb, so I wouldn't be able to figure out the error?

Installed and got it working (after taking a while to figure out the settings I needed).
Great mod. Just what we needed.

My host automatically does this, but i think this is even better as i can have my other admins do a restore without having to go in the ops. Great mod for people who don't have hosts that do this automatically!

Mine did too and when the HD crashed and I lost the site, guess which drive the backup they do was on. :cross-eyed:

something seems odd in my backup from last night. Out of no where it jumps extensively.

I store attachments in the file system, so thats not the cause. I KNOW I didn't have 80mb worth of members and posts yesterday.

Anyone see anything like this before? I have no error logs or anything...

:banana:

Thanx works great
