Question

i have only ftp credentials in which i am using this script

$r="mysqldump $dbuser $dbpass $dbname wp_posts > table1.sql";

system($r);

but unfortunatly m getting a blank result in table1.sql

Answer 1

finally i got the solution, here is my code:

<?php
$username = "abc";
$password = "xyz";
$hostname = "domain.com";
$database = "test_db";
$username =escapeshellcmd($username);
$password =escapeshellcmd($password);
$hostname =escapeshellcmd($hostname);
$database =escapeshellcmd($database);
$backupFile='url'.date("Y-m-d-H-i-s").$database.'.sql.tgz';

 $command = "mysqldump -u$username -p$password -h$hostname $database wp_posts > $backupFile";
system($command, $result);
echo $result;
?>

thnx for your support, really appreciate it.
