i know that this topic has been covered before, but i still have problems and havent found an answer. when i try to backup i get the following error message: Backup Failed: Filesize was 0 bytes. the problem is, a backup was created, its just empty. safe mode is off. what else can I do to back this up? Is there a way in phpmyadmin? Thanks!!

I setup a test site and found that there was a permissions problem to something on the C drive. dont know what yet, but i will post it when i find it.

The backup uses mysqldump and the exec command. If it doesn't work after removing safe mode, then your host is not allowing customers to use system commands. You can ask them to give you permission. If they won't, you can use PhpMyAdmin at least for now to do it.
