[plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_admin_db_manager - database backups and more

Is the patched version for 4.0.6 compatible with 4.0.5?

Features: And I would love to see an extended version (automation, scheduler, send by mail). Any chance to get this into TXP core or into the plug-in?

yes it is. In fact when I posted it here, it was compiled in a 4.0.5 install.

Scheduling is best done with a CRON job (on *NIX servers). Far more efficient, simple and reliable than trying to reproduce similar behaviour in a web application, IMHO.

Colak: Many thanks for posting the patched version for 4.0.6.

Recently the admin_db_manager tabs haven’t been appearing in my admin section tabs. I last used it without problem about two weeks ago.

I’m using 4.0.6, so I deleted the plugin and reinstalled it the new version, but still don’t see the tabs.

The plugin is activated. I’m stumped.

What should I try next?

You need to read Ruud’s post which concerns new privileges coding in 4.0.6

azw · 2008-03-27 08:51:11

Thanks for the really fast reply, thebombsite.

Yes, I did install the new privileges and still no tabs.

After I installed 4.0.6, my Preflight Check shows some issues. Maybe this is related?

Pre-flight check 
Some Textpattern files are out of date: 
/include/txp_file.php, 
/include/txp_prefs.php, 
/lib/taglib.php ? 
Some Textpattern files have been modified: 
/include/txp_category.php, 
/include/txp_form.php, 
/include/txp_import.php, 
/include/txp_link.php, 
/include/txp_preview.php, 
/lib/IXRClass.php, 
/lib/admin_config.php, 
/lib/class.thumb.php, 
/lib/constants.php, 
/lib/txplib_db.php, 
/lib/txplib_update.php, 
/publish/log.php, 
/publish/search.php, 
/update/_to_4.0.3.php ?

I’m running the MLP (for multilingual websites). I think that plugin causes at least one of those reports, but not usually so many of them.

I presume this was an upgrade rather than a new install?

azw · 2008-03-27 09:01:44

Yes, the 4.0.6 was an upgrade.
I wonder if I should upload the textpattern files again?

Well I’ve noticed a couple of posts from people who have upgraded and had similar pre-flight diagnostics. It might simply be a problem with “over-writing” an existing file. Try deleting the current file first then upload the new version. I would work on those top 3 first and see how it goes, particularly as they include the txp_prefs.php file. If that goes well then do the same with the others.

azw · 2008-03-27 09:20:48

Thanks, again, Stuart. Reuploading seems to have done the trick.

All of the errors went away except for the one for /lib/taglib.php , which is normal for the MLP.

The db tabs now appear in the Extensions section along with the Templates tab. I thought it was supposed to be in the Admin section, but I don’t care where it shows up as long as it works! The db tabs weren’t there a few minutes ago. The rss_admin_db_manager worked, too, so it’s really fixed.

Excellent! :) As far as I can recall, and certainly in my current set-up, the tabs appear under “Extensions”.

azw · 2008-03-27 09:59:16

Yeah, that seems familiar. I probably misread the text of the plugin description.

The rss_admin_db_manager plugin adds 3 new tabs to your Textpattern admin interface. Each tab contains different functionality to help manage your MySQL database. …

Reading that again, it doesn’t actually say which section it appears in.

Hello. I am trying to install the rss_admin_db_manager. I have Textpattern 4.0.1. I am getting two errors:

Badly formed or empty plugin code

Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 0 of 6544 bytes in /users/home/northtoronto/public_html/textpattern/include/txp_plugin.php on line 152

Any ideas??

azw · 2008-03-30 17:27:48

NorthToronto, you are running an old version of Textpattern. I think that’s five versions ago! I serioulsly doubt that anyone is going to be willing to help you make the plugin work with an old version of the CMS.

I haven’t looked at the underlying code, but your plugin may be trying to access code that only appears in newer versions of Txp. It’s likely that this problem will go away when you update Txp.

It’s not that hard to update Txp and, besides, it’s usually a security risk to run old versions.

Good luck!
