vB Database Backup Pro (Lite) for vb 3.6 · **Released**: 09-17-2006

This modification is no longer available or supported.

When vb 3.5 first came out I was using this backup system on my vb 3.0 - and having nothing better to use - I converted it to work on vb 3.5 (here) and since then I have cut it down and adapted it for vb 3.6.

The original version was by Trigunflame and the rights to the code were bought by Zoints (D.Chapman) in January. A while ago David gave me permission to release my adaption, but until now I haven't got round to it. Trigunflame did mention a few months ago he was working on a new version, but nothing ever appeared.

I have stripped out much of the extra stuff that I do not use (or indeed, could not get to work). This is a simple (lite) version that does a php based dump of your database either as one file, or one file per table. It's been in use on our forum since the day 3.6 was installed.

Notes:
* I will not add anything new to this, or spend vast amounts of time supporting it.
* This is a Lite version to allow people to use the basic 3.0 backup functionality on 3.6.

History:

v2.10 : First internal version.
v2.11 : Bug fixes, some code changes.
v2.12 : Initial Public Release.

Paul is it possible you could write a script to just force a repair/optimize every set minute/hour/day type deal? I ask because that is in this script when it runs the backup.

Thanks in advance

There is no valid reason to want to repair/optimize mysql that often. Its only in this because the original author added it, and I have never removed it.

Okay...thanks for the reply.

I've skimmed through all of the posts and I apologise if this is mentioned previously..

On my instance, if you're the person unfortunate enough to kick off the database backup you are presented with the output from the backup script. Is there any way to turn this off?

Paul M · #**596** 04-10-2008, 10:06 AM

I'm pretty sure that should never happen. Sounds a bit odd to me.

Hey Paul M, thanks for this. This works like a charm.

I'm going through my plugins now and getting my site 3.7 ready. Is this expected to be 3.7 compatible?

Paul M · #**599** 04-14-2008, 06:52 AM

There is a 3.7 version in the 3.7 forum.

This may have been answered, but i cant find it.
After downloading the backup, i find it has saved all the tables seperately. I now want to update my mysql with a complete backup, but this will take forever with all the seperate files.

Is there a way to join all the files or install all in one hit??

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
