Hello,

Assuming you have the variables set correctly and system is not disabled you need a space between the -u and $username but none after-p for $password. The grep for the message is not needed since it goes to the terminal screen and is not output to the file. And I suggest creating the file then gzip'ing it. Try something like this for your code:

$cmd = "$dump -u $username -p$password $data --quick --add-drop-table $db $t ; gzip $temp ";
                    system($cmd);

[lakshmi4788]

hi,
$cmd = "$dump -u $username -p$password $data --quick --add-drop-table $db $t ; gzip $temp ";

system($cmd);

but where do i mention the path where i need database to be dumped...

[rch1231]

Opps forgot to add that part.

$cmd = "$dump -u $username -p$password $data --quick --add-drop-table $db $t  > $temp; gzip $temp ";

      system($cmd);

[lakshmi4788]

<?php




        // Change Me

    $username = "root";
    $password = "pass";
    $connect=mysql_connect("localhost","root","nandanam") or die("loser");
    $db= "jai";
    @mysql_select_db($db) or die( "Unable to select database");
    $temp="/home/lakshmi/Desktop/hanuman/backup5.sql ";


      $cmd = "$dump -u $username -p$password $data --quick --add-drop-table $db $t > $temp; gzip $temp ";


   
      system($cmd);
?>

then clicked run , no error was shown but the database was not dumped...didnt serve my purpose....is der anything wrong in wht im doin????

Well you never define $dump = mysqldump and what are $data and $t for?
And checking I found the following syntax through google which shows your original | to gzip:

<?php
include 'config.php';
include 'opendb.php';

$backupFile = $dbname . date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz';
$command = "mysqldump --opt -h $dbhost -u $dbuser -p $dbpass $dbname | gzip > $backupFile";
system($command);
include 'closedb.php';
?>

[lakshmi4788]

<?php
         include 'config.php';
         include 'opendb.php';
       $backupFile = $dbname . date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz';
        $command = "mysqldump --opt -h $dbhost -u $dbuser -p $dbpass $dbname | gzip > $backupFile";
         system($command);
         include 'closedb.php';
         ?>

in the code that u jus provided where is the path to dump the database...i tried the code... no error was der... but db was not dumped...

and in the code shown below

<?php
$username = "root";
$password = "pass";
$connect=mysql_connect("localhost","root","pass") or die("loser");
$db= "jai";
@mysql_select_db($db) or die( "Unable to select database");
$temp="/home/lakshmi/Desktop/hanuman/backup5.sql ";
$cmd = "$dump -u $username -p$password $data --quick --add-drop-table $db $t > $temp; gzip $temp ";
system($cmd);
?>

how to define $dump = mysqldump and what are $data and $t used for ?.....i need to dump a db to a particular folder in my desktop...

[saiprem]

Hi
try your code like this everything will works, I think it is not necessary to connect to DB.

$dbname = 'database_name';//your actual database name
$backupFile = '/home/lakshmi/Desktop/'.$dbname . date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz';
$dbuser = 'root'; // mysql username
$dbpass = 'password'; // mysql password 
system("mysqldump -u $dbuser -p$dbpass --quick $dbname | gzip > $backupFile");

<?php
         include 'config.php';
         include 'opendb.php';
       $backupFile = $dbname . date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz';
        $command = "mysqldump --opt -h $dbhost -u $dbuser -p $dbpass $dbname | gzip > $backupFile";
         system($command);
         include 'closedb.php';
         ?>

in the code that u jus provided where is the path to dump the database...i tried the code... no error was der... but db was not dumped...

and in the code shown below

<?php
$username = "root";
$password = "pass";
$connect=mysql_connect("localhost","root","pass") or die("loser");
$db= "jai";
@mysql_select_db($db) or die( "Unable to select database");
$temp="/home/lakshmi/Desktop/hanuman/backup5.sql ";
$cmd = "$dump -u $username -p$password $data --quick --add-drop-table $db $t > $temp; gzip $temp ";
system($cmd);
?>

Take a look at the error logs.
It may be that the apache user does not have permission to write to the directory /home/lakshmi/Desktop/hanuman/

Can you get logged in via ssh and try the command from the command line? It may require full path to find mysqldump or something else. If you can connect with ssh try the following from the user prompt:

mysqldump -u root -pnandanam jai

It should output to the terminal. If it works then add

> /home/lakshmi/Desktop/hanuman/outfile.sql

and see if it creates the file. If that works stick the whole command line in the quotes and see what happens. I would like to know what it is when you figure it out.

[saiprem]

Is your php program running in netbeans, please check that by putting general echo statements, if it is running check which DB(mysql, sqlite, mssql, oracle) you are using and which DB you are dumping.

If everything is working fine & all the settings are correct
then it might be something wrong with your code.

can you tell me which OS you are using.

If you are using Linux, you can directly type the following command in your linux shell prompt

ex:
linuxshell > mysqldump -u dbusername -pdbpassword --quick dbname | gzip > filepath_where_do_u_want_take_backup

If you are using windows platorm, check where mysql is installed go to mysql installed path and type the above shown command
(nothing but mysqldump.exe will be present in the mysql installed location)
ex:
D:\PHP\bin\mysql\mysql5.1.30\bin> mysqldump -u dbusername -pdbpassword --quick dbname | gzip > filepath_where_do_u_want_take_backup

<?php

include 'config.php';

include 'opendb.php';

/*$backupFile = $dbname . date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz';

$command = "mysqldump --opt -h $dbhost -u $dbuser -p $dbpass $dbname | gzip > $backupFile";

system($command);
*/

$dbname = 'jai';//your actual database name

$backupFile = '/home/lakshmi/Desktop/hanuman/'.$dbname . date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz';

$dbuser = 'root'; // mysql username

$dbpass = 'nandanam'; // mysql password

There will be a service called sftpd, check it in the etc directory, might it has stopped, restart that service.

[lakshmi4788]

hi....i coudnt find sftpd...i could find sftpd in /usr/share/doc/libssh2-1-dev/examples/simple/sftpdir.c.gz....it has socket programming n i dont know how to restart the service of sftp as u said...i could ssh to another pc successfully... prob is with dis particular pc but dis pc can ssh into mine...very uncertain...pls get me out of dis...

[saiprem]

So there is no sftp service in your linux system, try installing it and try doing sftp transfers

[lakshmi4788]

sftp service comes along with ssh rit???...i hav ssh n others can ssh into mine...even i can ssh into few.... but in few this server refused error occurs....

[saiprem]

most of Linux distributions come along with SFTP installed, If it is not found in your linux distribution then you need to install it in your Linux OS.

[lakshmi4788]

i can do scp manually n it works all well....but wen i run this code i get these errors...

Warning: ssh2_scp_send(/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/Cap09a.ppt ) [function.ssh2-scp-send]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lakshmi/Desktop/lachu/PhpProject3/my project.php on line 118

Warning: ssh2_scp_send() [function.ssh2-scp-send]: Unable to read source file in /home/lakshmi/Desktop/lachu/PhpProject3/my project.php on line 118

this is da code that i tried implementing....
$conn1 = ssh2_connect('192.168.0.3', 22); //remote ip
ssh2_auth_password($conn1, 'remote username', 'remote password');
ssh2_scp_send($conn1, '/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/Cap09a.ppt ', '/home/neethu/Desktop/Newtrials/', 0644);

[saiprem]

May be because of the permissions problem to file,
check your file "/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/Cap09a.ppt" is having proper read permissions, after changing the permissions
Just copy the code below and try

$conn1 = ssh2_connect('192.168.0.3', 22); //remote ip
ssh2_auth_password($conn1, 'remote username', 'remote password'); 
ssh2_scp_send($conn1, '/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/Cap09a.ppt', '/home/neethu/Desktop/Newtrials/Cap09a.ppt', 0644);

I hope it will works for you, because there is a white space added after your local filename

i can do scp manually n it works all well....but wen i run this code i get these errors...

Warning: ssh2_scp_send(/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/Cap09a.ppt ) [function.ssh2-scp-send]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lakshmi/Desktop/lachu/PhpProject3/my project.php on line 118

[lakshmi4788]

hey prob regardin ssh2_scp_send was solved....it was due to lack of permission...after assignin correct permission i copied ur code... nw it works perfectly...n ssh prob is also solved i restarted ssh of the pc which i couldnt access...hey tanx a lot!!! u guys r doin a gr8 job!!!

[lakshmi4788]

this is wht i want to implement....
mysql -u root -p db_name < /home/lakshmi/Desktop/path/backup5.sql

in php
$File= '/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/backup5.sql';
system("mysql -u $dbuser -p $dbpass --quick $dbname < $File");

above php code worked perfectly but after restarting my pc it stopped workin n da output i get is....

Never put space after -p in your syntax, i really wonder how it has worked for you.

use like this
system("mysql -u $dbuser -p$dbpass --quick $dbname < $File");

and change the settings in my.ini or my.cnf which ever you have

max_allowed_packet
connection_time

this is wht i want to implement....
mysql -u root -p db_name < /home/lakshmi/Desktop/path/backup5.sql

in php
$File= '/home/lakshmi/Desktop/new/backup5.sql';
system("mysql -u $dbuser -p $dbpass --quick $dbname < $File");

above php code worked perfectly but after restarting my pc it stopped workin n da output i get is....
