    Default MySql Backup Module

    When doing a backup is not giving me the option of GZip... only the Pure SQL, is that right? I just reuploaded the files of the module, and keeps on doing the same.

    It won't offer the option if it finds that the gzip service cannot be found.

    I do have that service.

    The funny thing is that the backups are created in .sql.gz format.

    Default Re: MySql Backup Module

    It gives me a perfect sql file.

    So to summarize the whole issue.

    I have GZ service. When I want to create a backup only gives me the pure sql option BUT backups on gz format. So that means I can't backup on pure sql anyhow.

    Another buggy??? This could be my 3rd one discovered...

    I've had this problem with the module all along. The first cart I installed was in June, 1.3.01 I think. Same problem with 1.3.02 and 1.3.5 for me.

    That sounds like a "feature" of your hosting service.

    Next time I get around to looking at that module for updates, I'll keep this issue in mind to see if there's anything that needs tweaking.
    Again, most of the issues are server-specific, making it very hard to anticipate every possible scenario.

    Default Re: MySql Backup Module

    Hello,
    I just installed MySql Backup Module and have exactly the same issue.
    I see "No Compression (Pure SQL)", but it creates only GZIP file.

    Should I address it with my hosting provider?

    What program can UNzip this file?

    WinZip gives an error.

    Thanks.
