i just made a backup of my database. the display of the backup set says everything went ok, but at the end of the list i found some strange lines with these special characters:


Block 862 | 2004-04-07 08:20:50 | CRC32 OK
661 INSERT INTO `ee_uncookied` VALUES ('1', '?’Anà EOãmdL"w›¶7è¶Ç6*ÎXŽëž>$*BEu£ÇèóçkdÁÏì莢~5îz¹—UÕJ ÒæÊ‚?˜` )=‚¯Q5Ê*¼ü§{Tt`¥ÒϺkO>a[‘ºÈƒHG´¼ ò`,e'ÏœPÖyþxËþž?f9@ä•ç¼LŒçW?ºG šL6U™g`@R; Â5QßÓ1?hñ°B%ó3¾+hh*ÀÅ΋ÍýLª%´ã 25&‹Ê¨oÈ** —‹N”Â$ûÛ'g?>Y ç0nÀaÇ *¤šM`ß?‹(ø¹*X¥ÎW$tõû ', '1')

Yes that is binary table data. Browser can not display it properly but the data is fine on file (or database).

Just to ease user's mind I will add a "test restore" mode to EE Backup in the future.

Please note also that there is really no need to backup up ee_performance, ee_uncookied and ee_message tables every time. Just make sure after restore that those tables are created manually (you can pick create table commands from any file backup which has those tables).

Hej,

I am having a problem when I do a RESTORE.
PROBLEM: Can not go on.
COMMAND WAS REJECTED:

INSERT INTO `ee_uncookied` VALUES ('1',
Duplicate entry '1' for key 1

PLEASE CHECK FIRST THAT THE CHOSEN READING DELIMITER (|EE|BACKUP|) IS CORRECT.


I am having the correct Delimiter, and have no clue what to do next.
Do I need to restore this table or?
The PhotoGallery seems to have been restored fine anyway.
