Is there a "backup" module?  Bottom

  • HammerHead, I've been planning the module since I found out that there wasn't a backup module for Postnuke.

    pnBackup is finished and is downloadable at http://vistra.dview.net.
  • there is one though :)

    Don't know if you mod can do this (Dump screen of MyDBbackup):

    Does anyone know if such modules are likely to be affected by future PN releases? (from DB point of view, assuming they are comliant)

    I've just run this on a test site and ot worked just fine. Great job. ;)


    FYI, since the topic is Backing Up database. Most, if not all servers you try and do a restore of a database on via phpMyAdmin, it wont work. There is a time limit and most sites of larger sizes, the DB is too big and will time out.

    Small site? Sure no problem. If that DB is over 2MB forget it. You'll have to do it (if you use phpMyAdmin to restore) by pasting into the SQL query small pieces at a time.


    All was fine - no errors. ;)
  • ah well in that case we ought to hope that the PN database never gets deleted, or i think we really will be done for.

    Whats with the time limit? is it a security measure?

    Ill have a look at the backup module shortly

  • No, the DB can be restored with root access by server admin here quite easy. But thats another story all together.
  • ah well in that case i can sleep easy at night ;)
