You're welcome! :) I am happy that it works for you.

hi Birdie501

man i swear iam not ++++ing u i have diffrant forums and our hosting servers dont alow ssh or tel net
i have aproblem iam not geting any errors at all
every thing is cool the back up but in restore it says every thing restored
you go to the forum and boof nothing restored i did that over
4 times hosting on free bsd and all is cool as i told u no erros
just that the restore goes ok but in real it wont restore any thing
any idea will be so much happy 2 hear it
regards :glasses:

does this work with 2.2.9 and 2.3.0??

yah same here and with almost everyone

It doesn't create any file. I triple checked everything, and yes, my host can do dumps. Backup folder is still empty.

BTW, thanks for you "great" support... hehe, yeah right... :disappointed:

Hello Birdie501,

I am unable to restore db.

I feel something is wrong in the $programm variable:

// ###################### Start Dorestore #######################

if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action']=="dorestore") {

if(file_exists($pfad."/backup.sql.gz")==1):
$programm="c:/usr/mysql/bin/mysqldump";
$parameter="--host=".$db_host." --user=".$db_username." --password=".$db_passwort." --database=".$db_name." <".$pfad."/backup.sql";

What should go in the $programm variable line please?

by the way, I am using Apache on Windows and using v2.3 and all is so far working fine, thanks for this useful hack! :)

never mind, I discovered the problem was a mistake in the hack code that wasn't even updated in the original instruction file, so if you're going to install be sure to read all the post and look for the area of the code that needs to be changed.

I read the whole thread and I must have missed the code change you were talking about. Can you point me to it, please? ;)

mmm... I tried going to the whole thread too to point out the changes, but sorry, maybe I didn't look good enough, anyways, I made the change in my install file and attached it, if you use it you shouldn't go wrong -at least I didn't.

Compare mine with the original install txt file and when you see the difference then you can search for the text and find the original posts that talks about the change in code. This I suggest you do.

I'd wish that whenever changes were made, developers took the time to upload the new files, so many people's time is plain wasted :(

I am using 2.3.0 and yes, it did work fine.
