EXT: mmsynchro¶

What makes the extension?¶

• The extension is a synchronization and backup solution.
• All database table could be synchronized
• All files in the directories fileadmin, uploads and typo3conf/ext could be synchronized
• Synchronisation of the page tree
• Local or remote synchronization
• The extensions offers a Typo3 Module CLI and allows synchronization with a cronjob
• Creation and restoration of database dumps
• Only admin users have access to the configuration interface
• All other backend users could start the synchronization and backup process

Remote-Verbindung.¶

Requires: SSH2 for PHP

Introduction:

• http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/make_ssh_connections _with_php/
• http://de2.php.net/manual/de/ssh2.installation.php
• There is a fix for SSH2 in the tutorial section

CLI Funktionalität¶

For the CLI functionality you needthe user "_CLI_user“.

Parameters:

• 1. Parameter:the configuration UID (ID of the record - see Synchronization: configuration) or"backup" (for "backup" 2nd parameter is not required)
• 2. Parameter:definition of the synchronization process on bit (Tables: 1, Files 2, Pages: 4)
• Ex: /server/www/typo3/cli_dispatch.phpsh mmsynchro 1 7 or/server/www/typo3/cli_dispatch.phpsh mmsynchro backup

Synchronization: Configuration¶

For synchronization a configuration can be created. A configuration can only created or deleted by an admin.

Required fields: title, path to the log folder and the destination folder

When creating the configuration, it is possible that a database and / or a remote connection can be specified. To synchronize database tables and the page tree a database connection is required.

Remote synchronization via SSH:

Please make the appropriate configurations.

Following is the individual choice to synchronize the database tables, files and Typo3 pages on the corresponding tabs.

Execute synchronization¶

Therefore, choose the appropriate synchronization sources.

Backup¶

A non-existent configuration leads automatically to a TYPO3 error message

Creation and restoration of database dumps.It can only be imported dumps, the extension of these were created.

SSH2¶

LIBSSH2_APINO was removed from the public header file. You need to patch ssh2.c to work with new libssh2 versions.

ssh2.c patch:

LINE 480:
search and change following line:
#if LIBSSH2_APINO < 200412301450
...
#else

to:
#if (defined(LIBSSH2_APINO) && LIBSSH2_APINO < 200412301450)
...
#else /* if LIBSSH2_APINO is not defined its v0.14 or higher. no problem! */

LINE 1216:
search and change following line:
#if (LIBSSH2_APINO > 200503221619)

to:
#if (defined(LIBSSH2_APINO) && (LIBSSH2_APINO > 200503221619)) || (defined(LIBSSH2_VERSION_NUM) && LIBSSH2_VERSION_NUM >= 0x001000)

Compile again!
