Hi,

if you can close down for a short period, you should have
to apache instances, one for your production and one for your
backup.

First close down your production instance, then start your
backup instance containing only a simple conf.file.

Production:
AliasMatch /$               /w600webbj/index.htm                    
AliasMatch /w600webbj/(.*)$   /w600webbj/$1                        
ScriptAliasMatch /w600libbj/(.*).pgm /qsys.lib/w600libbj.lib/$1.pgm
ScriptAliasMatch /w600libbj/(.*).cgi /qsys.lib/w600libbj.lib/$1.pgm

Backup:
AliasMatch /$               /w600webbj/backup.htm                    
AliasMatch /w600webbj/(.*)$   /w600webbj/$1                        
ErrorDocument 404 /w600libbj/backup.htm

This backup.htm will tell all users that backup is in progress when
they do the next submit af any request.

Then do your save and clean up, close down the backup instanse and start
the production instance.

[Easy400Group] How to backup web app files ?





We are just starting to use CGIDEV2 to develop web applications,
however, we are wondering how to go about backing up our files.

We currently save our data nightly, however, our web apps do not close
the files (as suggested for performance reasons) which locks the
object and it doesn't get saved.

We would like to keep our web apps running 24/7 if possible, but we
may be willing to shut them down for a short period of time if
necesary.

We have read that some people use the "save while active" option while
others just shut down their site.  What are the pro/cons of each?

How are people backing up their web data?
