Port to 6.x

Not until the 5.x version works enough for a 5.x-1.0 release, I'd guess.
See #138877: Can't backup database from table list among others.

Sorry, wrong status...

If it were me, I'd say the D6 port shouldn't start until the following are all fixed:
#138877: Can't backup database from table list
#103911: Failure of automatic backup with large database
#103906: Mailed database backups have mal-formed attachments
#132810: dba_run_script() truncates lines to 8192 bytes

and perhaps this, too:
#45769: Serious translations problems

Subscribing. Port to 6.x would be nice, though it is a good idea to port a stable version, certainly

I see this issue was opened in June 2008.
Is the developer still actively supporting this module, as it does not look he is replying here?

I nor any of the other maintainers have been able to actively support this module for some time. I keep expecting to have time "soon", but "soon" never seems to be "today".

I know the feeling ;)
Hope you can get around to it soon.

1. Any one has made any port and cross checked for Form API 2.0?
2. I saw a list of vulnerabilities for 5.x-1.x-dev version?
3. I am trying to give a shot at porting any suggestion and help is welcome

6 would be good. This is an awesome module.

It's important that the issues in #3 be addressed as you don't want to port the problems, too. Issue http://drupal.org/node/103911 seems particularly critical in my case. I've had decent success following the solution I reference in my post on that. If you go to a file based system, most of the problem is resolved but large tables still cause memory issues. http://drupal.org/node/103906 also has a possible patch posted.

@New Oceans: It's confusing if you keep editing your existing comment, and the people subscribed via email never see your "updates". If you have something new to add, put it in a new comment. Thanks. ;)

@dww: Here you go

Definitely prefer to access the database via Drupal.

However, as long as there's no 5.0/6.0 version I'll stick with sqlyog*:
- http://www.webyog.com/en/screenshots_sqlyog.php

Another tool (webbased) which might be worth looking at - for the time being:
- http://www.sqlbuddy.com/screenshots

Needs remote access - ask provider

I just wanted dba for D6 for some basic stuff (viewing, updating, describing tables,etc. I don't have access to other tools), so I tried to port the module. The basic stuff is working now, but not fully tested.
Anyone interested in the code? I'm fairly new to Drupal.org; I don't know if it's regular or allowed to just dump a zip-file here.

@henkiejan: Thanks. Generally, a .zip file of a bunch of changed files is not helpful. If you can create a patch, it's much more likely that some of your work could be useful to others.

Thanks,

@henkiejan: if you will contact me thru my contact page here and send me your files, I will try to make a patch suitable for raw testing. It should be a good exercise for me and might help move things along here.

Just to let know I'd love to see a D6 version: subscribing ;)

@henkiejan: offer still stands. Will send you a note via contact page if possible.

+1 subscribing. a dba module for 6.0 would be fantastic
