The PHP system() command must be enabled on your web server. If your web host has disabled it, the script will not work.
The script can be executed via your browser, but it is really designed to be executed as a cron job. Features:
- backup any number of databases but only one database per execution of the script. So each database to be backed up must have a separate cron table entry. This makes it less likely that the script will exceed your system’s PHP script time limit. The backup file is deleted from the server the next time the database is backed up via this script.
- Backup all or only specified tables in the database.
- for each backup file, send you an email containing a download link.
- optionally, supress the emails and, via your browser, download all backup files bundled in one zip archive.
- optionally, optimize the tables in the database.
- send an email if error conditions are encountered.
The backup is performed using the "mysqldump" command. The file can be restored using phpMyAdmin.
