My cron job simply calls mysqldump with a few command line options to dump specific databases and put the output in a particular folder. There are plenty of publicly available tools that do something similar; I know of sourceforge.net/projects/automysqlbackup but haven't used it in ages so can't comment much on it. | |

The problem with backups is that you need to make them before a system has crashed, and I have not found a pattern in the crashes yet. Is there an automated backup service that I can configure for XAMPP? | |
