Hi all specially Dries and chx,
I have written dbbackup module and added it to CVS then I got a ticket proposing the idea of adding the whole module as a functionality to Database Administrator.
Before I add my module I searched in all 4.7 module for something similar and contacted the backup module owner to join forces but he ignored me thus I started a module.
Now that I have checked Database Administration module I would like to take over that module to: 1. Upgrade it to 4.7. 2. Add Database Backup functionality. 3. Upgrade it to 5.0.
Jeremy is traveling to Alaska, so give him a few more days. The DBA module already has a database back-up feature built into 4.6. It well designed to handle multi-gig database exports and doesn't time out with PHP. This was funded by CivicSpace. Have you evaluated you this functionality yet? I doubt he would mind if you tested and confirm the patch to deal with the forms API upgrade. http://drupal.org/node/68274#comment-140632 Cheers, Kieran CivicSpace
I hope someone can help me do this.
Thanks, Omar
