I got it working.

Why would my backup not run automatically this morning at the 6 AM default?

Here's a screenshot from my ACP. I run it manually again and it worked fine. But, I'm wondering why it just didn't run automatically.

Anyone?

This is probably the easiest question in the whole thread.

Thanks! :)

When try to restore, the system said file to big and when finally it done by tables groups, it skip all french characters from database.

Actually its not, without access to your server/forum, its impossible to say.

Check out a few posts up (should be previous page) where I posted the ACP screenshot. Running it manually it works fine but it doesn't run automatically. Nothing more, nothing less.

Thanks.

All that screenshot tells me is that you have a correctly set-up cron job, nothing more.

Its a bit like posting a picture of an engine and then asking why it wont run.

So what do you suggest? Where do we go from here?

Version 3.8.002 released - most of the options have been moved to the ACP.

Just re-upload the files and import the product.

How do you recommend for the settings in the vBulletin options in 3.8.002?

The defaults are fine for most people.

Thanks Paul. It works a treat, just as always.

thanks Paul installed and works a treat

In vBulletin Options All "no" sign. I hope they are correct. Because by default they came.

Thanks for update Paul M. The new version is more beautiful and useful. :) Turkish translation can bedownloaded from the attachment.

P.S Language pack updated.

I had this for a while, and it's always worked fine. However, I just updated, and now when I try to run it manually, I just get a screen that says "an error occurred during the backup."

EDIT: I found the problem. If anyone else is experiencing this, I solved it by going here: vBulletin Options --> vBulletin Auto Backup and scrolling down to the file path. For some reason it made the file path ../../backups/ instead of ././backups/

I simply changed it by removing the extra . and it worked fine!

I'm still getting that same error"an error occurred during the backup"i'm not to clear on
how my Backups Path should be written?do i leave it like: ../../backups/ or do i need to
put a certain path and if so can you show example on how it should look.thanks

i put the path i had in the version before this so all you really need in there is ././backups/

You put whatever path you were using before.

paul i've never got it to work.. thats why i'm asking for example on how the path should look?

The path is user/server specific, there is already an example in the settings, and many posts on the subject in this thread. I cannot tell you what you need for your specific setup.

Thanks both of you. :)

I installed the latest version but I do not see the Auto Backup option in vBulletin Options --> vBulletin Auto Backup.

Look again. It will be near the end, otherwise it didnt install correctly (which is unlikely).

Same issue here. I displayed all options then type it in via the browser search. Doesn't detect anything. I also did a reinstall, still nothing there.

Thank you for the update.

In my case just: backup/ :)

Edition upgrade to version 3.8.002 when a team was having problems. You have to remove and install the plugin again and "ADEM GENÇ" take advantage of our translation of the problem was resolved.

Thanks for the updates and improvements ...

Paul,

I just uninstalled the old version and installed the new version and all is well.

I would like to do what you suggested with regards to having the backups named by the day of the week instead of the date in order to keep only 7 backups on the website.

Is there an easy way to do this with the new interface without editing the php files?

If so, can you give the the info and where I should enter it?

THANKS

Yes, enter l (lowercase L) in the date format.

Paul,

Sorry to be a moron here, but let me just clarify. I remove the 'Y-m-d' from the 'Date Format" info and replace it with a lower case L? That's it?

Correct.

Anyone having issues with this can upload this file and point to it on your browser.

Is there any way someone can provide me with a list of files the old version had?

Are they the same as what's included in this folder?

Very Gooood addon

i want the backup file to be compressed ! can i do that automatical with some changes to the code ?

can someone help me?

Thanks
Giorgos

I'm rolling right along and everything's cool.

My only thing is that the backup seems to run not at the default time? The other day it ran at 10:54 AM and today it ran at 9:21 AM?

Thoughts?

Great hack!!

Installed and working just fine ;)

Old version ?

The name/number of files has not changed (ever ...).
