Cannot find mysqldump.exe #34

Open ghorneman opened 8 years ago

ghorneman commented 8 years ago

I am using version 1.4.3. On demand back creates a backup. Scheduled backup fails.

this is the error message from the log

2015-09-12 06:00 - ERROR - The system could not find the MySQLDump.exe file. Please add the MySQL \bin path to your system's PATH variable.

This is the path on the machine

E:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin

This is the value of the PATH variable

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows

;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32

\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL

\DTS\Binn\;E:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\;C:\Program

Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Connector Net 6.3.7\bin\

It looks to me like the bin directory is in the path.

I like the ease of use of the program but have not gotten it to work yet and am on a schedule. I had similar experience with 1.3.x from Sourceforge but no error message. that is why I switched to 1.4.3. I decided not to go with 1.4.4 because of the hotfix. Thanks for looking at this.

Hi,

Can you please verify that this is the PATH variable listed in the SYSTEM environment variables, not in the USER section? Environment Variables

Thanks!

Version 1.4.4 is safe to use - the hotfix was created to provide a new feature that I did not have the time to test properly. 1.4.4 is not broken.

Hi,

It was in the system section. There were only 2 variables in the user section - neither was a path variable.
