Vbulletin Database Backup Pro (Cron Support)
Developer Last Online: Nov 2019
NOTICE: 02/03/2006 This system is being "ReBorn" into a new product "Vbulletin Backup Pro" working from a New Codebase and hopefully implementing all the features and fixing all the bugs that were present in the previous releases. This will be developed specifically for the vbulletin 3.5 system but will probably maintain compatabilty with the pre-existing 3.0 versions. Summary: Vbulletin Database Backup Pro is just what it says; a professional tool for your Vbulletin installation. This script will handle the automated backup of your forums in a secure, data-conscious and optimized way. Introduction: I want to interest all of you in the ultimate solution for automated database backup from within Vbulletin crontab system. And potentially more so than a standard crontab. It's been said, backing up without direct shell access is futile. Wrong. This script is optimized to work just fine with even the largest of databases. (Note: If you have an extremely large database, make sure to use the mysqldump binary option that is selected by default.) The reason for the creation of this script was due to needing a better system of automated backup. I think me and a lot of people have used either a standard cron system, or brad.loo's small database cron; while they can be somewhat effective, they do not provide the functionality or a total solution without having to extensively mod it. This system has automatic failovers for MySQLdump, as well as the compression programs used where applicable. All in all, this script is a one stop shop for handling your backup needs on a automatic basis or from the control panel without having to use shell and do a dump manually. Features:

Help Debugging: This may come as a surprise to some people.. but I do all my code in notepad, thus it may not look formatted right for people that use editors. If you want to view the code in "my" style, how its supposed to look. Open my files in Notepad, with Font size 10-Regular-Lucida Console. As for An errors you may get, when you post; Post your PHP Version, MySQL Version, and the Error as is Shown Please. Further Info: I would like a lot of people to try this script and give me feedback on what you would like changed, what Needs changed and so on and so forth. With the size of this script, it more than likely not gonna work perfect on every system.. so just tell me whats wrong and I will try to get it fixed. Show Your Support

Go into your ACP, then into the vBulletin options to turn your forum on/off.
BTW - your error is (I believe) because your mysql user does not have the rights to lock tables. |

Wow, you're fast on the trigger! I'm here in Cincinnati Ohio, and it's 1:00 a.m.....very sleepy.
Yeah, as soon as I posted that last message I figured it out and fixed it, then quickly deleted my post so as to hide my inexperience..... ;-)) I'll check on the user rights situation as far as locking tables, though. Thanks for the tip! DiSH |

The backup is making the .sql file however it is not compressing it. I ran the test mode and it gave the following error, however it made the .sql file. It also did not upload to the remote FTP.
Daily BackUp An error occured while outputing a New GZ file with the PHP GZ ZLIB Module. |

Seems to work fine but even after the backup is made correctly and the forums are up again it says:
Failover was initiated for MySQLDump Binary, but dump completed successfully Is this an error? //EDIT: I just read this reply made later: "If the dump exist in its path, then its ok. That is just informing you that the backup could not use MySQLDump, and had to resort to PHPDump" Well...it's weird but It works for me. Thanks and nice job ! |

There is a weird bug in your backup system that I have just found out.
When you set Code:
$backup['FTP'] |

If you backups are working, I wouldn't worry about a minor bug in mere log entries.
