Backup error

Post by gaz316 »

When I do a Backup of my FAQ through the admin section, it creates a file called "attachment.php". When I try and import this data back into the FAQ and receive "This does not seem to be a backup of phpmyfaq"

When I do a Mysql backup using Mysqlfront, I receive the following error when importing the data into a fresh database

“Error: 1170 - BLOB column 'keywords' used in key specification without a key lengthâ€

Hi,

the export and the import works well on my system (phpMyFAQ 1.3.3-dev, no changes in the backup module since 1.3.2). The development version also names the backup files phpmyfaq.<date>.sql instead of attachment.php.

Thanks for the reply i am using 3 versions as im testing it for a few sites:

1.3.0
1.3.1
1.3.2

Always receive the backup file as attachment.php.

This is being tested on a web server running Apache,
PhP4.3.1 and My sql 3.2.3.55

Even when a do a drop of the tables on mysql i receive an error importing as detailed in my previous post.

Hi,

I've found another bug in the backup module. :(
These bugs are fixed in phpMyFAQ 1.3.3-dev. Is it possible for you to check your FAQ with 1.3.3-dev and test, if the bugs are fixed?
