Moron Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Okay, a crazy (but hopefully simple) beginner question..... my organization just recently started running MySQL with a new Joomla-based website. How do I make backups of the database? Is it adequate to just back up the folder path where the database resides or is it more involved than that? Thanks!

activeserver Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 assuming i understood ur q correctly, http://www.google.com/search?q=zmanda amanda zmanda and if you have CPanel access it has a whole-site backup script on the first page. Of course you could also make your own script.... Your stored proceures - you might have to backup manually, but that's fair - it's your *source code* hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aschk Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Use the correct MySQL tools for backing up. Read: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/backup.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
