No it didnt.

Its not possible for this to break anything, since it doesnt change anything. It certainly cannot delete tables.You need to look elsewhere.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7249956 bytes)

I am on shared hosting with Godaddy on a windows box.

the backup does me fine, but when I put everything in the localhost - attachaments and avatars are not.
may be corrupted?
What configuration of hack me?
thanks

Mauro-

It is likely you have attachments and avatars set to be saved in the file system- this mod only backs up the database. You need to worry about coping files separately.

Admin CP -> Attachments -> Attachment Storage Type
and
Admin CP -> Avatars -> User Picture Storage Type

These places will tell you where your attachments and avatars are stored.

Assuming you have also put the filesystem into localhost..... Don't panic. When restoring the forum locally you need to specify the local location for the attachments etc. It's a hidden menu.

To get things working:
Update local path in /includes/config.php
Update email options settings in vbulletin admin panel to reference new url (along with all the other settings)
I had my attachments stored in the filesystem and in vbulletin, in a location specified as a crazy full server path which can only be changed by switching to debug mode: $config['Misc']['debug'] = 1; <<by adding that to the 2nd line of the config.php). Then a hidden item in the admin panel's option menu appears for "untouchables" (2nd on the list!) where the path can be changed (remembering to remove the debug mode line afterwards from config.php).

Any idea what we should tell our host about this error? I have this mod installed on 2 forums and a test forum.

all stopped working on aug 30th 2012.....my host dont seem to think its them..all files on my side have not changed and even reinstalled the mod...still no gzip.


Host just emailed back and said everything fine on the server

The gzip is installed on the server and working fine. Please have a look:

======================================
root@rs2 [~]# which gzip
/bin/gzip

root@rs2 [~]# gzip -V
gzip 1.3.5
nothing has changed on my end.......time to find a new host I guess
