Why don't you try this handy tool, works like a charm, I have used it already for a long time
That's ok if you're trying to dump a MySQL database. But better to use something like mysqldump or one of the hotbackup tools (like xtrabackup). Even better, get a webhost that doesn't make you jump through hoops to get a backup of your own DB!!!
Anyway, that's all irrelevant. This thread has nothing to do with DB backups.
