Ticket #1212 (Closed: invalid)

Backup/restore instance scripts broken?

Priority: normal Reporter: john
Severity: minor Assigned to: anonymous
Component: Install Scripts Status: closed
Version: 2.4.0 Resolution: invalid
Milestone: 2.4.0 Keywords:  

Description by john:

I found that the indices on the 'argv' array in the various
xxxx_instance.php files were wrong.    Also, the method used to locate
the configuration settings was a bit incomplete such that a simple
'create_instance --db_password xxxx' didn't work.  ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION: See the patch file at  http://pye.dyndns.org/campsite/
(temporary link, try opening the unzipped 'patch' file with 'kompare'
under KDE)

I need more details on this; please describe test cases. Give exact
command lines and output.

    I see now that I made changes to the BASH script (adding '--etc-dir'
before $"$ETCDIR") which then required my changes to the PHP script.
The changes which I used are available in that patch file I mentioned.
Screenshots of the backup_instance script are shown.     Will these
scripts be used once the C++ parse is removed? I guess they will.
Perhaps a format like that used by MySQL would result in simplified
code, eg    campsiteadmin create name  campsiteadmin backup name    If
I get a chance I'll take another look at them and submit a more
complete patch.    Cheers  JP
