backup plugin does not work with FO 2.0
« on: May 16, 2012, 04:31:02 am »
I extracted, and when I go to:

index.php?c=backup&a=install

Under cron now I get:
Missing lang: cron event name cron_backup:
Missing lang: cron event desc cron_backup

but how do I do a manual backup, not a cron one???

Good question, I can't work it out.

Oops worked it out,
index.php?c=backup

Click the link "Missing lang: start backup"
Maybe fix the language files if you can work that out, otherwise don't need it often enough to matter.

I'm not sure if mine worked, I have about 250mb of files on server and I know that I can not use tar gzip to zip it all up as I get memory limit errors.

I end up with two zip files in /tmp/backups/
One is opengoo_backup.zip
The other is opengoo_backup.zip.ASDFGFG (random stuff).

They are different sizes.

Ugh more info.

Edit /applciation/controller/BackupController.class.php
Put in your info between lines 3-7

If you do not modify those then ANYONE can download your backups by visiting the URLs where the backups go by default. Not cool.

My db.sql vanished after backup for some reason.. not sure what happened there. Maybe it gets packed into the zip file afterwards.
