mesteele101 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I shut my site down to create a backup of the database before updating to 4.0.8. I noticed the database was transferring a huge .sql fie, compared to what it usually does. I thought something was very wrong. I created several backups in secession and every backup i created the size kept getting smaller.This is rather frightening because it's a backup, and why is the size changing when the site has been shut down. It did level off after some time, and I think I got a good backup of the database? I didn't' have to restorer it so I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
