Hey everyone. I've been using this Mod for a while now and haven't had a single issue until now. This last week or so I get this error message now when it runs and it causes my forum to be shut off until I go in and turn it off and on again. I haven't changed anything so I'm not sure what the problem is and why this just started happening.

Database error in vBulletin 3.7.0:

Invalid SQL:

Perhaps you have a low mysql timeout value.

I'm on a shared server so I don't get to mess wtih any of those settings (at least I don't think). It's weird cause I haven't had an issue with this mod, even when I used the old one on 3.6.x

My site is pretty small so the backup usually completes really fast. Like 5,000 threads, 50,000 posts, and 3000 members

Stupid question but I want this mod to do backups just like vbulletin does. So I would set combine all tables to one file to yes right?

If thats what vb does then yes.

Got it working, thanks.

I've had a couple of occasions where the board did not get reopened after the backup.

i want it back up to ftp

where can i find that

finally i got it working .i was having this erorr : An error occured during the Backup : Could not open Destination SQL file for writing. even i gave my backup folder 777 and also providing the correct path . i have found that the problem was i changed

"Y-m-d"

Do not Change "Y-m-d" until u get it working for ya

that's why it was showing me this erorr
An error occured during the Backup : Could not open Destination SQL file for writing

Strange . So may be few guyz having this problem due to this edit "Y-m-d".

Installed Now. one thing if any one could tell me how to compress the backup in to zip or gzip ? thanks

Would be great if you can add this feature please. Thanks.
