As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This is a cut down version based on a backup system written by Trigunflame for vb 3.0. It is a simple vBulletin cron trigged php system that does a dump of your database - either as one complete file, or as one file per table. Especially useful now that IB removed the old ACP backup option in vBulletin 4. Files can be (G)Zipped to save space.

All the options are located in the ACP in vBulletin Options >> vBulletin Automatic Backup

To install, download and unzip the files, and follow the instructions in the text file.


History:

v4.0.1 : 28-Dec-2009 : Initial release for vb 4.0.0 Gold.

Ok, apologies for asking this question again. but I am completely confused by the path requirements :$ ...



This is the path in my ftp program...
I have tried setting up a new folder structure - home/rascal/backups and entered that into the options for the plugin, but that didn't work either.

I'm not sure what the '.' represents in the paths...



Is that the right path for the path in the ftp screenie?

We are using a dedicated host, and have recently upgraded to 4.03...

Thanks for any help

The path would, I believe, be ../db_backup/

Sweet - Thanks Paul

That worked a treat - a bit annoying that I was so close, and yet so far

Backup completed in 62.073 secs

The FTP user setup you are using may not be able to set the 777 permissions properly and isn't telling you that with any error message. I had that problem. I went to the hosting control panel and use the file manager application there instead of trying to do it in my FTP app, and set the permissions there,
It then worked!

Wrong.

All my vb4 mods have screenshots where it is relevant. You cant exactly screenshot a database backup.
