The mysqlbackup.php file, but this code did not work for me when I added it to the test or live sites.

If you have server access to two servers you could set up an rsync with ssh on a cronjob to sync the backups created by this mod to a remote server. Probably.

I do have shell access to both servers. Is there a tutorial on this anywhere?

I haven't tried it myself. I googled and found this which should probably work: http://troy.jdmz.net/rsync/index.html and could include your forum filesystem as well as the db backup. Please report back on your progress :)

thanks, I'll try and report

doesn't seem to be backing up _all_ of the tables...

Which tables is it missing? My backups seem to be smaller than the DB size, but when restored to a test installation all the stats and data usage reported in the Vb admin pages is identical.

Paul,

Mod was working like a charm and then we changed accounts (stayed with the same host, just moved to a different server) and ever since, I'm not getting any Backups made. It's not version or vbulletin version based either since I recent;y upgraded to 4.2.0 and the newest version of this Mod and nothing.

Could there be something on the host side (using VPS) preventing this from working?

Did the directories or permissions change? When you manually run the script does it complete successfully?

i created the backups folder in the root of my vbulletin install and changed permissions to 777 but I still get this error
