The backup file does not exist

[rdragnea]

When I want to create a database backup, I get the following error: "The backup file does not exist"

Can anyone help me?

sure go to phpmyadmin, usually domain.xx/phpmyadmin or over your cpanel in case of shared server. Login and export the database. The databse alone won't give you a full backup though.

asigurați-vă că accesați phpmyadmin, de obicei domain.xx/phpmyadmin sau peste cpanel în cazul unui server partajat. Conectați-vă și exportați baza de date. Numai baza de date nu vă va oferi o copie de rezervă completă.

Thank you! I know about that. My interest is to work in Prestashop Backoffice.

What version of PrestaShop are you using?

1.7.8.0

Your error appears here:

prestashop_root/src/Adapter/Backup/DatabaseBackupCreator.php

$legacyBackup = new PrestaShopBackup();
if (!$legacyBackup->add()) {
	throw new BackupException('Failed to create backup');
}

So you should go to the add() function in class PrestaShopBackup (/classes/PrestaShopBackup .php), and debug there, to see exactly where the error is.

I would say that you did not have Gzip compression enabled on your server. Check this first.

Thank you, but the error is 'The backup file does not exist' not 'Failed to create backup'
