    First of all I want to thank you guys for an excellent piece of software.

    I migrated a site manally to my ispconfig3 server, created a db-user and a database manually, I notice under the backup-tab that only the website-files are backed up (daily). Can i somehow make it include the Mysql-database aswell? or do I need to crontab mysqldump it in the web-directory?

    Other Wordpress sites installed with the APS-installer back both files and db nicely.
    Thanks in advance.

    database backups should be available aswell, are the databases "connected" to a website?

    Yes it is, but I just found out that there were som broken tables, just fixed them and was possible to make a manual backup. I'll get back here tomorrow and report if that solved this case.

    With manually you men outside of ISPconfig? In that case, the database is not included in backups.

    Not outside ispconfig, just not automatic (as it is with the APS-installer)

    The backup did not run because of an error in the database, would be lovely if this was more visible somewhere.. Problem solved for now anyway.
    You can close this thread. Thanks
