You don't have to develop or buy anything. You can use mysqldump in conjunction with a shell script to do what you want, and automate it with either the Windows Scheduler (on Win32) or a cronjob (Linux, *nix). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Neil Tompkins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, November 30, 2002 9:33 AM Subject: backing up mySQL database ?
Hello, I'm looking to either development a software application that will allow me to automatically at scheduled intervals backup my mySQL databases. I would like to save the table structures and data. I;ve used mySQL Front that allows you to backup these, but I need it to be automated e.g every 2 hours... Can someone point me in the right direction. I will look to develop the software is Delphi 6 or C++ Builder 5. The other option I have is to purchase some software that will allow me to do this. Any suggestions or recommendations ? Thanks for any help and advice.
