Description

I am using backup module in a localhost environment, utilising Wed Developer Server Suite (Apache 2.2, MySql etc), Drupal 5.1, php 5, clean urls, pretty standard setup etc.

The following is reported:

System program "mysqldump" not found in $PATH. Please check with your sysadmin for further assistance.

However, mysqldump is in my system path, which is reported as:

C: \WINDOWS\system32;C: \WINDOWS;C: \WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C: \Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;C: \Program Files\Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager\;C: \Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C: \www\openssl\bin;C: \www\Apache22\bin;C: \www\php5;<strong>C: \www\mysql5\bin</strong>;C: \www\perl\bin

Any advice? Any reason why this shouldn't recognise this path element?

Thanks!

Hmm, maybe my code is parsing the Windows path incorrectly.

Unfortuantely, I do not have any Windows machines to test my code on.

In another bug, someone suggested that I abandon my current method of checking the path and just try executing each file instead to determine if it is present. I may look into that approach.
