HI !
Since this post isn't this old, and i have some issue with backup, it guess it's ok to UP it.
Before this month, i could use the backup panel option for my forum; but right now, this option doesn't work anymore. When I click on the download button, the page just show up an error. Chrome or Mozilla both.
So I read your message, saying that, for a big database, we have to use our host tool export. Alright,I want to use that. But, when i do a "standard" export, the file just look "broken"
90% on that is full with error message :
(158349, 'ERROR', 709, '/home/marceaufae/valhalla/Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php', 'The database value you''re trying to insert does not exist: member_id<em>(Chat.php-305)</em>'),
(158350, 'ERROR', 709, '/home/marceaufae/valhalla/Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php', 'Wrong value type sent to the database. Integer expected. (member_id)<em>(Chat.php-305)</em>'),
(158351, 'ERROR', 709, '/home/marceaufae/valhalla/Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php', 'The database value you''re trying to insert does not exist: member_id<em>(Chat.php-275)</em>'),
(158352, 'ERROR', 709, '/home/marceaufae/valhalla/Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php', 'Wrong value type sent to the database. Integer expected. (member_id)<em>(Chat.php-275)</em>'),
(158353, 'INFO', 103, '/home/marceaufae/valhalla/Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php', 'Undefined offset: 1'),
(158354, 'INFO', 103, '/home/marceaufae/valhalla/Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php', 'Undefined offset: 0'),
Does you have a clue about that is wrong here ?
actually, you don't ant to post to an ancient thread, especially which is already marked as solved....
when you say a "standard" export what are you talking about?
Those error messages have nothing to do with mySQL... and if you are getting them when you attempt to backup using the smf admin tool, then it would seem that your chat mod has screed up your SMF admin.... besides, you should not be using the smf backup option, as we have already said...
To back up your database, you should be doing so from phpmyadmin (export option) or the host control panel.
Alternatively, there are scripts like mysqldumper which can be automated to grab a backup daily...

Isn't that your table smf_log_errors?
Try to empty your error log before performing the export
whoops... good catch, margarett! yes... that would seem to be rows from the error log table -- which means that his backup/export is probably actually working correctly after all.
Yeah ! Great job on it :D
The Sachat mod caused so much error ( 1 500 000 entry on 1 table....) that the whole file was just too big... tools were stopping before getting out of this table.
I just drop the table, and all is ok :)
Really thanks about that.
ummm.... you can not drop that table!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that table is REQUIRED to be PRESEN.
You should have just truncated it... or emptied the error log from inside smf admin
Yep, i truncated it.
English is not my native language, so i just mistaken a word :)
whew.... even side from English... words like drop have a very specific meaning as commands in mySQL :)
