Phil's Diary: Backups

Wednesday August 14, 2002

Backups

Well that’s sorted. It’s not quite as automatic as I’d like, but I can backup the DB now (and from the DB recreate all the pages). I think the lack of automation is something to do with the wierd password settings on the DB server. I seem to have two. One of the server and one for the database, and the dump program doesn’t seem to like using two.

Anyhow, it’s done, I can backup, so won’t lose everything if a harddrive dies or similar.

mysqldump is what you’re after in case you’re ever interested.

Hi Phil - Just thought I'd comment on the new style. Looks good, nice presentation and the colours look good.
