Hello all.

I’ve been running v4.1 of this plugin for a while and it installed first time.

However, I’ve recently setup a hosting account with Media Temple and can’t get it to work. When I go to make a backup i get an error: “BACKUP FAILED: folder is not writable”.

I’m 100% sure that im using the right urls – it didn’t work with the default settings.

Backup path: /var/www/html/backup
Mysqldump path: /usr/bin/mysqldump
Mysql path: /usr/bin/mysql

I’ve also checked the folder permissions. MySQL v3.23.58 is installed on my Media Temple account.

Any ideas? Cant see why it works on one and not the other.

P.S. – This is the code that the debugger is kicking out:

<code>/usr/bin/mysqldump-hblank -ublank -pblank -Q —add-drop-table —skip-lock-tables —skip-add-locks myres_co_uk_-_textpattern > /var/www/html/backup/1146339044-myres_co_uk_-_textpattern.sql</code>

/usr/local/pem/vhosts/8696/webspace/httpdocs/pixelicious/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(459) : eval()’d code on line 75

Very fine plugin.
I have it running on different txp-installt without problems.

Unfortunately I couldn’t manage to run this plugin on my textdrive-account.
It “backups” – without error message – but the backup has only 20 bytes and there is definitely more content.

I think it has to do with “mysqldump” and “mysql” but couldn’t find which path to use.

Can anyone help me?

Log in via ssh and type:
which mysqldump
That should give you the full path to the executable, if it is in your path (usually the case). Otherwise you can try locate mysqldump to find it.

Thank you, that was a really fast answer!
And it works now, problem resolved, thank you very much :-)

I just want to thank you for your amazing plugins. I currently use the rss_thumbpop one on one of my client’s sites. If you are interested you can view it here http://aoh-nj.org/gallery/gallery.

I wanted to use the rss_admin_db_manager, but when i try to install it I encounter an error. I load the plugin via the plugin tab and when I click upload it displays a preview of the PHP code, but when I click install it says that the page does not exist and gives me a 404. I have encountered a similar error on several other ‘long’ plugins, and I was wondering if you know why this is happening, I am using the new 4.0.3 version of Textpattern.

Again, thank you for the plugins, they are an enormous help. Oh, by the way, the automatic image resize plugin you linked to wasn’t there anymore so I created several automator actions on my mac to resize the original images, create thumbnails, and rename the thumbnails for import with nhn_image_import. If you would like me to send you the actions (if you use a mac) I will.

I’m having trouble getting this plugin to work. I go to the DB Backup Tab and I’ve got this: Lock Tables “NO”, Debug mode “NO”, Backup Path: /public_html, mysqldumppath: mysqldump, mysqlpath: mysql. So I click on the “.sql file“link to backup my database, and all I get is a 404 error message. No matter what path I type in or what I have selected I always get this message. What could I be doing wrong?

Does the directory have the correct permissions? 777 for most, but 755 for PHP running under CGI (if I remember correctly).

Alternatively, you could have a bad version, though that is unlikely. Have you tried reinstalling with a new file?

Hi,

I had created a “backup” directory on my server for this purpose, so in the TXP Plugin, under Extensions>DB Backup, I’ve got /public_html/backup as my backup path. I changed the permissions on the backup directory to 777 and 755 and still get the same 404 Cannot Find Page Error. I’ve re-downloaded this plugin numerous times with still the same issue.

I really don’t know what else I can do. I’ve tried every combination of every available option (so I think) and still can’t get it to do anything except spit out a 404 error

Any ideas?
