Backup Restore Plugin doesn’t work for WP2.2

  • please anyone can help, i am using this great BACKUP RESTORE plugin since I start using WP, it is always doing great until I use it after upgraded to 2.2.1

    Error msg:

    Warning: passthru() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/domains/website.com/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/backuprestoreAdmin.php on line 21
Backup Successful.

    but then there’s no SQL file backup at my “backup” folder on server.

    on the php file line 21, it wrote:

    echo passthru("mysqldump --opt -h$server -u$loginsql -p$passsql $base >$file_name");

    *the whole paragraph:

    switch($_GET['action']) {
 case 'backupdatabase':
	 $datum = date('Ymd-His');
	 $base_file_name = $base . '_' . $datum . ".sql";
	 $file_name = $path . $base_file_name;
	 echo '<div class="wrap">';
	 //echo "mysqldump --opt -h$server -u$loginsql -p$passsql $base >$file_name ";
	 echo passthru("mysqldump --opt -h$server -u$loginsql -p$passsql $base >$file_name");
	 echo 'Backup Successful. <br/><a href="' . $siteurl . '/' . $backup_folder . $base_file_name . '">Download the new Backup Sql File</a>';
	 echo '</div>';
	 if ($user_level > 0) {
		 include('backuprestoreForm.php');
	 } else {
		 ?>

    thats not an error with the plugin. passthru is a commonly blocked from by some hosts since allowing it’s usage can lead to security issues.

    oh thx whooami for quick response, but how can i fix it?
    ask my hosting company to help?

    if so, what should i ask them to do for me?

    you can ask — I doubt theyre going to decide to allow it though.
