Does this work for you? I have 6 files in my backupDB directory and after running the script I still have 6 files. The backups weren't created every day though, they were a few days apart for some of them. I placed the code in the same spot in my mysqlbackup.php file.

Sorry, I meant to say 6. If you have no more than 6 files you won't see any get removed. You can adjust the number it keeps around.

I uploaded a few dummy files to my testvb and it still doesn't delete them. The dir is 755 so deleting should be fine. I have 7 files in that dir and it's set to keep 5 files.

Im probably being really dumb here paul but everytime i try to run this i just get:

Code:

Automatic Database Backup for vBulletin

Backup Error : Could not write to destination file ( .../backups/2012-09-17/Forum-2012-09-17-Aaggregate_temp_1347351000.sql )

And ive tried different varients of the address, both full and relative.. have made sure the directory permissions are set to 777.. what else can i do?

Should it be 3 dots or two? [.../]?

If your trying to create relative path it should actually be 1 stop (./backups/)

What you see is my dodgy editing for the post.

Anyway, it dosnt work with either a relative or full path in there.

Is there anything similar that will backup and then also upload to remote site at all?

You can call it whenever you want, I put it after the "Repair and Optimize" section, before the "Start Initial Dump" section.

Wich file I should modify?
