I have been playing with mysqldump and have use a script like:
<?
include("dataincludes/connect.inc");
$sql_dump = "mysqldump -u root $Marketplace_International > dbbackup.sql";
$sql_dump_result = exec($sql_dump);
echo "
\n sql_dump_result is " . $sql_dump_result;
return $sql_dump;
}
?>
right now, it creates the dbbackup.sql file but it is empty. I tried the same command from the mysql server and it works fine but when used in my script it comes up blank.
any help would be great.
