First opff thanks for releasing what sounds like a great mod. I'm having a problem installing.

I get to the password protect stage and then get the following error once I submit:

Is this an issue with directory permissions? Thanks

OK here is what I did. I chmod my backup directoy to 777 before running the install script. I guess the directory needed write permission to work.

Question: Does the autobackup setting apply to the database or the files?

just the database

Thanks... I'm a little uncertain of the email settings...what goes into the send mail from setting. I have everything working except the send mail aspect. Great Mod!

put whatever email address you want in the from box. its there in case your mail server catches it as spam and you can add the from address as a "safe sender" so it goes to your inbox.

I have a new version in the works right now. It will have alot more features but the main attraction will be incremental backups. So even if you have a huge database or massive amounts of files, this script will still back the whole thing up without timing out.... It can also do multiple databases and much more.

Also for some weird reason in your install.txt when adding the code to footer.php it suggests

Code:

foot();

?>
-------------------

Above add:
-------------------

//start auto backup code
$result1 = $db->sql_query("SELECT autostate, autolast, autoinc FROM ".$prefix."_advbackup where id='1'");
$row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result1);
$autostate = $row['autostate'];
$last_back = $row['autolast'];
$autoinc = $row['autoinc'];
   if ($autostate == "on"){
      $rawtime = time();
         if (($rawtime - $last_back) > ($autoinc * 3600) ) {
            include("includes/dump.php");
         }
   }
//end auto backup code

I noticed that i lost my downloads footer ! lol

So i had to add it in between the foot(); and ?>

The problem with that is that foot function contains a die(); at the end so that code will never get executed.

You should probably put that code right above the die(); in the foot function.

the bottom my footer.php looks like this

 if (file_exists("includes/custom_files/custom_footer.php")) {

      include_once("includes/custom_files/custom_footer.php");

    }

    echo "</body>\n</html>";

    ob_end_flush();

    die();

}



foot();

so i would do this

 if (file_exists("includes/custom_files/custom_footer.php")) {

      include_once("includes/custom_files/custom_footer.php");

    }

    echo "</body>\n</html>";

    ob_end_flush();

    //start auto backup code

   $result1 = $db->sql_query("SELECT autostate, autolast, autoinc FROM ".$prefix."_advbackup where id='1'");

   $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result1);

   $autostate = $row['autostate'];

   $last_back = $row['autolast'];

   $autoinc = $row['autoinc'];

      if ($autostate == "on"){

         $rawtime = time();

            if (($rawtime - $last_back) > ($autoinc * 3600) ) {

               include("includes/dump.php");

            }

      }

    //end auto backup code 

    die();

}



foot();
