Then with the details of your sql backup the database, or in case you cant access use mysql ssh commands to make a dump. mysqldump -u [user] -p [database_name] > [backupfile].dump Its not hard as it sounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, a reminder... every name is CaSe-SeNsiTiVe. Edited March 10, 2012 by Asura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
