The question may seem silly... If I want to do a database backup of my OSQA site, is it enough to do it with PHPMyAdmin? I'm using MySQL engine. |

Generally you can mysqldump to do a regular backup of your database. You'll also want to make a backup of the uploaded files. You can also run a regular backup from the OSQA admin (if you're using a recent revision) which I think will get both the data and your uploaded files (but Hernani can confirm). Yest, that's correct.

I am running a recent version but I cant find this option in the OSQA admin panel. Could you explain me where is it?

Are you using the django style interface, or the OSQA style interface?

The OSQA Style.

Ah, cause there is a bug, in that interface that some options are not displayed. You should look for tools/XML data export in the django style interface, or go to

Do this. Switch to django style interface, even if you don't have the media installed and the page looks unstyled, look for a menu group named "tools", probably "herramientas" or something in your language, the under that item there's a link "XML data export" or something like that. Click there. Then you can go back to the normal interface.

Hi, sorry but I am not able to see that. This is what I think you mean but I don't see the link "XML data export". http://oi55.tinypic.com/v2zbwz.jpg

See this related question - the exporter doesn't do anything for me. http://meta.osqa.net/questions/7471/is-anyone-successfully-backuping-up-their-instances-via-the-builtin-interface
