  • As I was very excited with the release of Zikula now it all become a disaster. My site crashed. I had a backup of the database and had generated a complete back of my site but the complete backup seems to be corrupted. The database backup file is around 10 MB which results timeout dumping the file...

    Gotta figure out a way to overcome this problem....

  • If there is anything that I might do to help, let me know.

    It sucks when that happens. I have foulded up several times and had to simply rebuild with a variety of different systems, including PostNuke.

  • If your host is worth what you're paying them, they should be able to...

    1. Handle the database restore for you
    2. Restore a backup they did before the problem happened.

  • I appreciate it Steffen. It gives me some hope to restore my forum. However, I can not find pnforum 2.6. Any idea, where I can get a copy....

    My Work.....

  • Dump only a portion of the tables at a time if using tools like phpMyAdmin.

    Check their size...chunk them into semi-equal sizes.

    A full dump is just a dump of all tables, but there is no need to do all the tables at once.
  • To restore I use bigdump

    I had to import a *.sql +25Meg and succeeded without a problem!
    Now I use it all the time, great tool

  • mysqldumper seems to do the trick. I am thinking of compiling an article in the Wiki and addressing common problems and how to overcome these problems at times of trouble.

  • A Wiki page is very helpfull. semi automatic download and upload of a large mysql dbase is very handy. Strugling with phpMyAdmin and doing it in portions is not very convenient.
