Geeklog Forums

when i try to backup my data base through GeekLog it sais:

Incorrect path or mysqldump utility not executable.
Check $_DB_mysqldump_path definition in config.php.
Variable currently defined as: /usr/bin/mysqldump


What Do I Do?

find mysqldump.

Try: locate mysqldump
Check it if really exists there and the permissions: ls -al /usr/bin/mysqldump
It may exist, but you don't have permission to run it. Are you on your own server, a shared environment? Would you have access to change the permissions to 755?

also if u can help me... i installed the FIle Management Plugin... and ppl uploaded like 30 files already and then it started saying... Filemgmt: Unable to upload - check permissions for the file store directories... i have set the directories to 777 and it still dont work...

Ask your hosting service for the correct path to mysqldump.
