Backup MySql error

[Geixa]

Hello!

It looks exactly like this:
define('OS_DELIM', '');

[DrByte]

Try using this:

define('OS_DELIM', '"');

(ie: add a double-quote between the two single-quotes)

[Geixa]

worked perfectly with your fix.
Thanks : ) : )

Result code: 1
0 => '"mysqldump"' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

1 => operable program or batch file.

Failure: The database has NOT been saved.

can U help me Dr.Byte

You have one or two problems ...

a) You stated you changed the define, but what you posted includes extra spaces around the double-quote mark, which would cause a problem.
b) It's very possible that the computer/server you're running it on doesn't even have the mysqldump binary/executable file on it. If you know that it does, you could try editing the /admin/includes/languages/english/backup_mysql.php file and set the actual path to it (instructions in the file). If it doesn't have the program on the server, then ... you can't use this addon until you install the mysql programs.

Dr. byte, good add on but you will be dealing with many problems. Woulds be better to write two contribs. One for the windows server and one for UNIX. This problem is going to haunt you...

Thanks for sharing your exceptionally astute insight. Too bad whatever you're trying to say doesn't make any sense.

Windows hosting is very particular and garbage IMO... So if we all did that there would be very little if any mods for Win servers... Then there would be complaints about that as well, I am sure.

If you are using Windows hosting with all of it idiosyncrasies, then clearly these are your cross to bear. Remember that these modules and the resulting support are on a volunteer basis... also that most web hosting is Linux/Apache based... So logically speaking MOST of what you are going to get from said Zen Cart users is for the Unix platform.
