I have created a PHP script that looks like:
<?php
$filename = "/var/www/html/db_backup_" . date("n-j-y").".sql";
exec('mysqldump -u ***** -p***** database > $filename');
?>
For some reason this doesnt work and I cant figure out why. There is no
error that comes back. When I run the mysqldump command from the server
console it produces the file fine. I have read a few other posts out there
about this same thing which resulted in the location the file was being
saved. But I have gone through my server and found nothing. Does anyone
have any suggestions for regarding this.
Thanks,
Aaron
