Backup Procedure

[Mr71]

I've inserted a button that successfully performs the procedure of back-up of the database.
Two questions:
1) is it possible to assign for other users the backup procedure in "access level"?! (and avoid "Access Denied"?!)
2) would it be possible to download the gzip backup file instead of keeping it on the server!?

Thanks ...

Hi,


Create a new Procedure that will run nuBuilder's backup procedure and assign access levels.

Code: Select all

$p = nuProcedure('nubackup');
eval($p);

The variable $dump_file contains the path to the file. Use readfile() to download it to the browser.

I created the procedure with your code, tested.... works, assigned to userA, login with the userA, click on the button and ... Access To Procedure Denied... (nubackup)

it's seems only for the administrator....

What code does the button run?

It's supposed to run

Code: Select all

nuRunPHPHidden('create_backup',0)

Now works Kevin!!! Thanks!

Hello,
I tried to use the var $dump_file to get the filename but it seems this is not working for me.

Here's the value of "$dump_file" after creating a dump file (the file was created on the server):

Code: Select all

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance,
Oli

It's base 64 encoded, try decoding it:

Code: Select all

base64_decode($dump_file);
