Hi,

I just installed XCloner on one of my websites. I hope it will help me with the migration from J1.5 to 2.5

At the first glance, it seem to be the best Joomla Backup Extention I have ever used.

I just did my first backup, of both files and database.

Then, I downloaded the .tar backup file which was generated.

Looking at the downloaded backup file, I could only see the files, but no database at all.

Should I be doing something stupid ? By the way, I have set the system to backup database also.

It looks like that although XCloner is backing up the database, as showed during backup process, it has not been included in the .tar file.

I would apreciate any help on this.

Tks,

Herbert

The database backup is located in the administrator/backups/database-sql.sql file inside the archive.

 

Hope it helps!
