Path to mysqldump.exe not recognized

    For some time now, I’ve had to use the PHP Code for the SQL Mode setting because Duplicator refuses to accept the path I enter for mysqldump.exe. I enter…
    C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin\mysqldump.exe
    …and it appears to save. However when the page refreshes, it’s set to PHP Code. When I click Mysqldump and it shows the path, it shows this…
    C://ProgramFiles//MySQL//MySQLServer5.7//bin//mysqldump.exe
    It has reversed the slashes and added extra ones, which it has always done, BUT it has also removed the spaces.

    This is on a WINDOWS server, and those spaces are in the actual path. Do I need to go back to the very old days and use the C:\Progra~1… type path for this plugin??? That certainly would be a giant step in the wrong direction.

    I look forward to hearing your ideas.

    Thank you!

    Hi @scotthco,

    Thanks for reaching out to Duplicator support.

    To solve the problem please enter this path, with the slashes reversed, and rename the folder without spaces
    For example: C:\Program-Files\MySQL\bin\mysqldump.exe

    Please let me know if this works.

    Thanks!
