Hi, Szabolcs! I tried something like this:
public function executeBackupDb() { $backupFile = '/var/www/dbname/backup'. date("Y-m-d-H-i-s") . '.gz'; $command = "mysqldump --opt -uuser -ppass dbname | gzip > $backupFile"; system($command); } but the file wasn't created because the folder does not exist. Actually only at this moment i am observed. Can you/anybody have any idea how can i transfer it to the client's computer via this action. So to be able the client to download the generated file.
