Java SMF Backup / Re: Error = "class java.lang.NullPointerException: null"

I'm checking into the IP thing.

"And another thing - I cannot see the image, irfan complains about unrecognized header."
My copy of IrfanView shows it OK, you may need to add the .png file type to your IrfanView.

"class java.lang.NullPointerException: null"

Looks like it may be fixed!

I kept playing around with the address string for the forum url because the error message seemed to say that it didn't like the address as entered.

So... with the "index.php" removed from the end of the address for the forum url it works OK.
Will keep watching for a few days to make sure, but it's been run manually for about 6 tries just now and seems to be OK.

Thanks for all of your help viulian... Ken.

The jar file test produces no results so far... no saved pages or folders. I'm still working with it trying to find whats wrong but so far no change.

Just as a point of information;
As a trial I setup the Java Backup to run a daily backup on one of my test forums and it works as it should with no problems at all, the forum is on the same server as my regular 'live' site but in it's own separate database of course.

The test site is located here... http://www.mykimbrell.com/tptest2/index.php

Everything is setup exactly the same for both forums in Java Backup except for the names.

My issue may be somewhat like his, mine has two entries for form action and both read as below:

<form action=......./index.php?action=login2.......

As noted before my server dose have  a file called .htaccess, but it is empty.



EDIT:
Ps: I did try the "http://www.mykimbrell.com/FamilyForum/index.php?action=login" in an alternate browser and it opened the login screen.

Hi viulian

Turns out my host server was having some issues, those issues seem to be resolved now.

My install of Java SMF Backup is still having the same problem as mentioned above... might this be a case of me having to 'hardcode' the database login info into the create_backup.php file?

MY forum is using a redirect file called 'index.php' that sends you to my forum if the regular .com address is entered.

www.mykimbrell.com will send you directly to www.mykimbrell.com/FamilyForum/index.php

There is an empty .htaccess file that the server runs, but I have no control over the file.

The only error that I'm seeing is as shown in the screen shot below.

On one of my forums the Java SMF Backup has stopped making the backup and shows this error when it tries to do the baclup.

"class java.lang.NullPointerException: null"

The settings for username and password all seem to be in order.

Java SMF Backup / Great Backup App!

Thanks for a great application!

For some time now I’ve been researching database backup options and trying different ways of doing daily backups with scripts/cronjob and so far I'm just not totally satisfied with what is available because none of them will give me exactly the result desired.
Your app appears to do just that, do the backup on a schedule and download it directly to a specified folder on my computer.

I've only used it for a short time now, but it appears to work well... I like it. 
Thanks… Ken
