A simple MySQL Backup Tool
If you administer a website (or indeed a number of websites) you may need a tool which will allow you to simply backup a MySQL database on a regular basis.
Although there are a number of tools available online, none quite fit our needs. As a result, we’ve quickly written a simple MySQL backup tool in PHP.
Features
- Tested compatible with PHP version 5.2.14 and MySQL 5.0
- Allows for SQL and ZIP export of a single MySQL database
- Lists previous backups made This is version 0.1a – it is no doubt buggy.
We would appreciate any feedback if you do decide to use the tool.
The application is fairly self explanatory in its usage.
Installation
- Extract the Zip file
- Copy the contents to a directory on your server
- Browse to the directory you saved the files to with your browser
Features to be added in v0.2a (Release date 4th February 2011)
Improved documentation
Backup multiple databases
Additional security (password for created ZIP files, and password for the utility)
