If your host will not change this, then try and find a new host.
Thank you. I got this fixed from my host, but now I'm suffering another problem... the ZIP file I get, beside being much smaller than expected, is corrupted... and I have no other hints from the logs... nor even from the script (the final message seems fine...).
What should I check ?

Try this using 7zip (7zip is free google it) to open the zip file. From what I can remember winzip and windows zip do not like zero size files or folders.

Thank you Skip... you're right, but the problem was not there... I think I found something else which caused problems (as I was finally able to see the contents of my first successful backup).
Since my webshop do use IMAGE HANDLER, I've found that the inclusion of the folder /bmz_cache would stop the script for unknown reasons...
/bmz_cache folder do contains the various images in various sizes for items on sale and its structure is somewhat particular: inside the folder there are 16 subfolders using a single character as a name ("0"~"f") and each of this folders do contain from 30 up to 100 files whose name is something like "f4c1e439d9719089428f509924152620.image.150x200.jpg"...
i.e.
/bmz_cache/0/f4c1e439d9719089428f509924152620.image.150x200.jpg
/bmz_cache/0/001e389e021733240fa9f2cabc32ef77.image.150x84.jpg
/bmz_cache/0/001e389e021733240fa9f2cabc32ef77.image.170x95.jpg
/bmz_cache/0/02be4a955844bccda43a0d6d6244ea9c.image.150x180.jpg
/bmz_cache/0/02fe4e81b9611961f668ebe971201cc7.image.150x180.jpg
...
/bmz_cache/3/3dc3d711e88dd8a1331f5425a8cc67c7.image.29x40.jpg
/bmz_cache/3/3dd8d6581b7299b9675719d65deac819.image.500x281.gif
...
I guess that this causes some troubles on command line which generates the archive file...
I confirm I was able to see my first successful backup only after placing this folder in the EXCLUDE list in backup_zconfig.php
Just to let you know. :huh:
Re: BackUp ZC [Support Thread]
I'm a newbie, and I have a question on installation. It seems like you're telling me to overwrite the existing ADMIN folder with the plugin's ADMIN folder, since I'm renaming the plugin ADMIN folder to match the existing one and placing it in the same super-folder.
I've tried putting the plugin package (from the ADMIN folder down) into the site root (i.e. under public_html/).
I also tried to put the ENTIRE package (including backup_zc_v1.1, the ADMIN folder's superfolder) into both public_html and public_html/catalog to avoid putting the new ADMIN into the same folder with the old admin.
From your directions as I understand them, there's nothing more I need to do, but the " 'Backup ZenCart' option under Admin->Tools" doesn't appear, even if I log out and log back in.
My hosting service is Arvixe, and it's a Linux server.
Re: BackUp ZC [Support Thread]
Disregard the question. I didn't realize that the FTP program would prompt me about replacing existing files. I was pretty sure it would, but I didn't want to take a chance.
The install went fine, and I've performed my first backup.
Thanks for this program.
Re: BackUp ZC [Support Thread]
I have installed it in 1.5 and its working great. One question....Is there a way i can back it up to a folder other then the cache? I am trying to backup outside of the public_html or at least in a folder name backup..
Thank You for this great add

Open and edit backup_zconfig.php
Find this at line 64
Code:
$file_location = DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE."/"; // Set cache directory as default where the arcive will be
Change it to the folder you want. The location must be writable for php.
COMPLETE path to your folder. eg: /var/www/vhost/accountname/public_html
Example: $file_location = "/var/www/vhost/accountname/backup/";

Re: BackUp ZC [Support Thread]
What do you have set ?
Create a SQL BackUp File From xxxx Database: Yes/No
Download Archive: Yes/No
Try setting to:
Create a SQL BackUp File From xxxx Database: Yes
Download Archive: No
This will place a zip file on the server (default your-zencart/cache/ )
Then use a ftp utility to download zip file.

Re: BackUp ZC [Support Thread]
Thanks for fast replay
I make it as you write again but the same result, it is a fresh install no new plug INS only backup_zc.
Maybe it is my filll zilla program. I have 2 other zip programs but the same result.
