    Backing Up Site

    Posted 18 years 1 month ago
    • I run the computers in my house off one server (running server 2003) that stays on 24/7

      My question is, how can I automate the backup of the mysql and site files from the website to a folder on the server, so that I don't have to think about it but have a backup

    • isn't there something called 'daily backup'? it backs up only the files that have been changed from the previous day ... and you can automate it i think

    • Do you mean, from an online website to your server?

      If you have an FTP server running on it, you could generate a backup from Joomla Cloner and auto-FTP it to your local server.

      If you're talking just local files, and a local development environment, just do as Damo says and use Windows Backup to do daily incrementals.

    • Hmm I think I know what you mean...

      Its a remote website hosted in america or somewhere, and my home server that runs the domain in my home

      I could install FTP so the website could contact my server

      What about the MYSQL?
