Scooby Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Is is possible to save a database manually? several times now ive had server crashes (its very rare nowdays) and lose all the data since the server was last started. so rather than me restarting the server to save the db is there a way to do this with a command?

Castillo Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 As far as I know, is not required to "save" the database. Link to comment
Scooby Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 well i always lose data when the server crashes, from what i can gather think the sql db only saves on shutdown so if the dedi crashes or the server.exe crashes all new data since the server started is lost. luckily for me, after losing so much data time and time again, i moved a lot over to xml but with new scripts i find i want to save more stats and i think right now its on the limits... and i dont wanna risk adding any more to sql coz i keep losing data. i guess i'll have to carry on as it is for now. thx for the quick reply Link to comment
Castillo Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Maybe you should consider moving to MySQL. Link to comment
Scooby Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 i have so many stats being saved i dont even think it would be possible to move now. also, i know nothing about MySQL. Link to comment
Cadu12 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 It is possible move to MySQL. I made my own account system. Link to comment
