Geeklog Forums

Both my Production server and my test server are having problems now. The backup file is created but the file size is 0. In the error.log I get this message:

3/17/2004 10:11:50 AM - Backup Filesize was 0 bytes

The IIS User has full control on the backup directiory. Any ideas what is happening here?

Thanks for any replies

I found my problem it was in config.php. There was

$_DB_mysqldump_path = '/usr/bin/mysqldump'; // path to mysqldump binary

instead of:

$_DB_mysqldump_path = '/mysql/bin/mysqldump'; // path to mysqldump binary


I forgot to change this varible.

Geeklog actually checks if the mysqldump utility exists in the given path and gives a more informative error message if it doesn't. However, we're using the is_executable() function for this, which does not exist under Windows. I guess we should at least throw in a file_exists() call there ...
