Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted August 9, 20177 yr Hi there, As the title implies, I would like to know what you use for backing up your website. I was using codeguard and thought it was good till I needed to restore my website after something broke and realize that the database was totally out of date, I was missing more then a week. It was suppose to backup every day. Now looking for a better solution and would like opinions.
August 10, 20177 yr Hello ! Since I use WHM/CPanel on my server, I enabled their backup system to automatically backup my account and database. I also do it myself everyday because I don't trust backup programs and so I setup a "hand-made" backup system using a simple script of my own (automatically ran by cron) with simple commands such as tar and mysqldump. And backups are sent to two different servers...
August 10, 20177 yr Author @SecondSightThank you, I will look into the cron method, sounds like a good idea.
