Cannot Create Backup So I Can Upgrade

Hello everyone,

I have an old store, ver 1.3.5, and i want to upgrade.

According to the instructions, i have to move all my images from the “file system” to “database”. I have done that. Then i have to create the store's backup. When i am trying to do it, using the admin page, i get an internal server error. I can't create a proper dump file, so i can't upgrade. Can anybody help??

Thanks for your time!

  1. Open the include/admin/database.php file and replace:


fn_define('DB_ROWS_PER_PASS', 40);



with



fn_define('DB_ROWS_PER_PASS', 2000);



2. Open the config.php file and replace


@ini_set('memory_limit', '20M');



with


@ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');



Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help, but nothing changed… I am still getting “internal server error”

I noticed that if I uncheck 4 specific tables, when choosing which tables i want to backup, the backup will be completed without a problem. I am getting the “internal server error” when i am trying to backup “detailed images”, “product images”, “stat_ips” and “stat_sessions”. Should i look for a problem on those tables? And if yes, what could be the issue?? Maybe I could skip the “stat_ips” and “stat_sessions” but not the images!
