Question

So far here what i’ve tried it can download the sql file but it is empty

//test.php

 <?php
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=wordpress_db1.sql');
?>

Here is what my root folder look like

I want to download the wordpress_db1.sql file when I run the test.php but I always get empty on it. How can I fix this? thanks!

Setting the headers doesn’t read the file. You can name the file anything you want in the attachment. You have to actually emit the file:

readfile('wordpress_db1.sql');
