Hi Ian, Ive been reading the posts concerning the security of your database using mysqldump. Are you using a remote server for your MySQL, or is it on your own computer? I've completed a database using LO Base with embedded HSQL. I guess I can use a MySQL server on my own machine to which I can connect LO Base to avoid the data loss problems with the embedded system. Is that he reason you went to MySQL? Hank On Mon, May 27, 2013 at 7:27 AM, Ian Whitfield <whitfield@telkomsa.net>wrote:
Hi All I'm now using the MySQL back-end (5.1.55) with LO Base (3.6.5.2) as my front-end - all on PCLOS 2013. I've been "messing" around since late last year getting this all right, (with lots of GREAT help from the Forum!!) My question now is - Where does MySQL store the Database and how do I track it down to make a backup?? Because of all my "messing" around I have several different files in the system that may be the right one but I'm not sure which is which. I lost my whole Database at the beginning of the year when I re-installed my OpSys so DON'T want that to happen again and need a reliable backup method. Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks a lot IanW Pretoria RSA -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscribe@global.**libreoffice.org<users%2Bunsubscribe@global.libreoffice.org> Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/**get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-** unsubscribe/<http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/> Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.**documentfoundation.org/** Netiquette <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette> List archive: http://listarchives.**libreoffice.org/global/users/<http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/> All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
