Hello!

The following article gives instructions on how to backup Mautic Database in Dropbox: https://www.mautic.org/blog/develope...ase-in-dropbox

I set the cron job to work every minute, but no files were imported to my Dropbox, so I suppose I missed something.

What is the correct command of the backup cron job? Is it “echo "date -u /root/db-backup/dbdump.sh" >> /root/db-backup/status.log 2>&1”?

In the dbdump.sh file that I created, I commented the line “rm -r /root/db-backup/mautic.sql” because I didn’t understand what it is for (If it removes the database from the db-backup folder on my laptop or from the server where Mautic is installed). Is the backup not working because of this?
