Re: [PHP-DB] MySQLDump through PHP/HTML UI

Hi Ken,

How long does the mysqldump operation last? Maybe it's a script timeout 
problem? And maybe you have different settings on both machines?

Other idea: what about pathnames? Linux uses "/" to separate paths, Windows 
uses "\".

That's all I have for now,

Yves
