Hi! Thanks very much for your help. I wonder if rake db:schema:dump would help to make a mysql backup. I think it just works for deployment. I wonder if there is some explanation about backups between the documentation, I couldn't find any at least at GIT repository. I've also found this resource: http://blog.radixhound.com/2008/4/28/backing-up-radiant-cms-using-sqlite3 but I don't know if it will work for a mysql database. Considering this, I've made a .tar.gz of my whole radiant directory, including /config. I would like to make that db:dump (which is the correct command?) to create the db backup but I don't know which command is it and which is the name of the database radiant is creating per default when we create a project. Your help will be truly appreciated!
