I dumped GoDaddy for this very reason - GoDaddy does not backup your site each night.  The 2 DNN modules that claim to do backups really don't work under al circumstances (bought both).



You are wrong. BackupScript (www.evotiva.com/backupscript) supports ANY module, and ANY ISP. Never reported any not resolved issue with any module or ISP.
Also, there is no Perry who ever bought BackupScript.  (You haven't never bought it;, thus never really used it)

True, I did not buy the module, the 2 contract programmers working for me did.  I had both work on backups for me - I want daily backups of the SQL.

Also, as they explain the problem with the DNN modules that claim to backup the SQL database, there are modules, like Active Cases, that handle the SQL database in a manor that when you try to restore your SQL database ALL these backup programs "blow up" and stop restoring in the middle - thus your restored SQL is not correct and DNN dies.  It's not the fault of the backup programs they both can't restore Active Cases and probably other modules that don't handle SQL properly.  I'm not a programmer, only someone paying professionals to build web sites for me.

I believe the 2 contractors that have both worked on this for me.

This is why GoDaddy is a very poor solution to protecting your customer's data - they have no backup capability.

I did switch over to www.ihostasp.net/ and they backup ALL my files and SQL each night - I copy the backup over each morning.  I don't know what they do to DNN but 4.4.1 runs at least 10 times faster than on GoDaddy, maybe 50 times faster the first thing in the morning.

And it's ALL modules - GoDaddy seemed to load resources for each module - IhostAsp.net seems to quickly load ALL resources for ALL modules and does it 10 times faster and keeps them alive much longer than GoDaddy.

They charge $25 to upgrade to a new DNN - my contract programmers charge 5 times that.

I would like to see more (any) details about this (never reported) issue with BackupScript.
I think you've tried another module(s), otherwise someone would already reported the problem (and this never happened).
BackupScript does not "claim to backup the SQL database". It really does it (and BackupNative too).

“He said, she said”…you can try to figure out what’s going on here:
 
The seller who has a profit motive to protect or a fellow user who reports the problem.
 
But why even do that?   Just look at the costs:
 
BackupScript costs $48.80- on Snowcovered with some kind of maintenance fee for years of usage.
 
Or www.IhostAsp.net where you pay $86.19 for ONE year of hosting and they backup your entire DNN site every night for 30 days history and the backups are kept offsite. Their DNN runs much much faster than GoDaddy's as a bonus.
 
The $25 DNN upgrade fee is something that really has my attention too. That includes backups of your site and then installing the new DNN version. I’ve screwed around for many hours doing it by hand – no thank you.
 
It’s really up to you how much emphasis you place on your customer’s ability to log into your/their site and NOT see that horrible Yellow screen indicating that you are out of business. Add on top of that the remote possibility that I’m right and you should really consider dumping GoDaddy and going with IhostAsp or someone that does automatic backups for you.  Trust me, you sleep better at night.

Where did you read that?.You are lying. Same that you never used BackupSript and you lie again saying it "doesn't work". You lie, and that was why you were banned from Snowcovered (you are not allowed to buy/ask/whatever from us) a long time ago. In fact (this is true) Snowcovered implemented this new "ban" feature because of you (I've requested it, showing them your posts and emails).

PerryM wroteThe seller who has a profit motive

I smell you own www.IhostAsp.net or something. You write the same thing again and again. That's ok. But you do not have any right to lie about what you don't care / like / goes against your interest / whatever

You can keep lying if you want. I will not answer any of your posts anymore; but be sure I'll notify the forum moderator if you write another lie. May be you end banned from this forums too (I hope not, of course).

Best regards,
HoracioJ.-
