    I just inherited a site that uses WP e-Commerce and need to update the plugin to v. 3.9. I get a message that says, “WP eCommerce 3.9 is almost ready. Some database routines need to be run before the upgrade is complete” Since they only have a production system, I don’t want to pull the trigger without doing a backup. Normally I back up wp installations with:

    mysqldump -u name -p [databasename] > filename.sql

    Does that back up the wp eCommerce data files too?

  • Hi there,

    I believe that query backs up the database as a sql file, therefore it should backup the WP eCommerce Data as well.

    You should also backup the files.

    Thanks!

    Hi bcohen

    mysqldump -u name -p [databasename] > filename.sql

    will backup your entire database all tables including store tables.

    My preferred method is to use Backup Buddy it will backup both the database and your files in one archive

    Regards
