Back Up of Xoops Database

Hi all!
I've been using XOOPS for a little while now and I'm just getting the hang of things. I wanted to know if there is a way to get a back-up of my XOOPS database using a module or something. I'm using XOOPS 2.0.7.1 and I was looking for something compatible with that.

I want to get weekly backups to download just incase !

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanx guys!

hi,

to backup your db - use phpmyadmin or such tools
to backup your db within a XOOPS modul -> perhaps see this story:

https://xoops.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=1726

phpmyadmin as a XOOPS modul

to backup your db weekly -> use chronjobs on your server.

Hi,
Thanks for the tip about phpmyadmin. I managed to do backup with no problems. I have one more question to anyone out there that can help.

I heard a while back that when you use the PhpMyAdmin tool to restore the backup of site, there is a limit on the amount of information that can be backed up. (Like, it just stops restoring after a set quota.) Does anyone know if this is true, and if so how many MBs can roughly be restored before it freezes?

Many thanx.

Re: Back Up of Xoops Database

PHPMyAdmin has a limit of Max: 51,200KB in size of the .sql file to import into the database. I guess the same applies to the other way around.

However, if you restore the database from a file, this file must be within the upload limit of the webserver, which is usually around 2 MB - set in the webserver's php.ini

Does anybody know a tool that does import and execution of big sql scripts?
