I was wondering if you could integrate to the admincp a hack from birdie for VB3, the backup restore one, it was so nice but doesn-t work anymore with vb 3.
I donīt think it would be difficult for you since Iīve seen what you can do...
Could you have a look at it?
It would consist of calling mysql dump to make the backup and once the backup is done (gzip) you could restore it through your AdminCP..
Thanks for asnwering..
;)

You can already backup from the AdminCP., but not restore, and it wouldnt make much sense to restore to a totaly crashed database if you cannot login to the Admincp ;)

That hack was made in the past for version 2.xx and was very nice. It would only take 2 minutes to restore the DB crached.
The only thing you had to do was creating a new vb and then restore the old db
It took me 2 minutes to restore a crashed database..

If the database was already dumped (from ssh) it would take all of 5 seconds to login and issue the restore command :)
