Nope.

Hi Paul, how are you doing?

Mod is working, but not the gzip part.

My server support guy tested the command and it works.

So when I run the cron job I get this

But the backup folder has only the sql files, no gzip.

Any idea? Thanks

Sorry, but the issue is server related.

The time of 0.022 seconds suggests the command is failing pretty much instantly. I'd guess at maybe permissions, but Im afraid there is no real way for me to know.

Mod installed and working perfectly with gzip. Thanks! I am one who forgets to back up their database.. doh!

So gratefully needed :)

Where does it store the db by default (../../backups/ ) ?

edit it with ../backups/ if you forum is in www.yourdomain.com/forum or backups/ if your forum is in www.yourdomain.com/

If your option is (../../backups/ ), your data base backup will store in /backups, out of public_html folder.

Create an empty file called index.html in backups folder.
