Free phpBB BackUp manager
This is a python script that will automatically make database backups for multiple phpBB forums.
It simulates the actions that a forum administrator will do while doing it. A really useful tool when you have many forums to manage.
Here is an explanation of the cfg.xml file <servers>
<server>
<url>http://forum1.com/forum</url> - here you need to put the exact address of your forum
<file>forum1.sql.gz</file> - the name of saved file, a time stamp will be added to it.
<login>AdminLogin1</login> - administrator login
<password>AdminPassword1</password> - administrator password
<dir>c:\ForumBackup\</dir> - the destination folder for the backup download
</server>
<server>
<url>http://forum2.com/forum</url>
<file>forum2.sql.gz</file>
<login>AdminLogin2</login>
<password>AdminPassword2</password>
<dir>c:\ForumBackup\</dir>
</server>
</servers>
You can add as many Forums as you wish this way, just by copying the xml tags and changing the data.
