Joomla!®Plug

ok I have find a solution in PHP...consisting in
2 scripts..see attached file if you want..



If I call simply this 2 file from the web (like www.mysite.com/Backup.php) scripts make the job without problem...and is what I need...cool

Only problem I see is when I make my backup and restore (with JCRON allready installed) I loose the component in my restore website. I can not see the JCRON menu compononent in Joomla admin. If I try to re-install JCRON I get a message telling "the component are allready installed"... If I delete manually from FTP JCRON component stored inside Joomla folder "components" I can after re-install without problem...

Any solution for avoid JCRON database lost after restoring?

thanks

When restoring, are you using an empty database? If not, you will need to create the backup with the "Add drop syntax" checked so you replace any existing tables, then try again!

Waw you are online very fast answer... thanks..

No my database are not empty...Is just a backup of ma actual database and for sure full with data...

I dont see where and how I must include "add drop syntax"...In my file I presume...How i can do that ?

That add drop syntax option is present in both the Generate backup screen -> Database tab and also in the JoomlaCloner Config -> Cron tab (for cron generated backups), it's a checkbox option
