Hello Dypsis,

actually only functioning scripts should be available for selection in the MM add-ons.
I solved the problem - I deleted it from the extensions and won't be using it.

Best regards

Hi guys, I keep on getting this error when I try to backup, manually or at shutdown. I'm not using a portable version and I'm on windows10. Any clue of what I should do? Many thanks in advance!

Path not found
File: "C:\Users\{me}\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey\Auto\Backup.vbs", Line: 1730, Column 2

What path is it looking for?
Thanks!

Hi,
Have you opened "C:\Users\{me}\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey\Auto\Backup.vbs" in notepad and check what path plugin searches.

Also check plugin options for invalid paths.

Just installing it after deleting all Backup files, it appears that the error exists in this part:

Code: Select all

Sub CleanUp(par,del) '0=ask 1=yes 2=all
  Dim fol,fil
  If del < 2 Then
    Dim res : res = SDB.MessageBox("Backup - delete folder '"&par.Path&"\'?",3,Array(0,1,3))
    Select Case res
      Case 6 'mrYes
        del = 1
      Case 10 'mrYesToAll
        del = 2
      Case Else
        Exit Sub
    End Select
  End If
  For Each fol In par.SubFolders
    Call CleanUp(fol,del)
  Next   
  For Each fil In par.Files
    Call fil.Delete(True)
  Next
  Call par.Delete(True)  
End Sub
Namely this line:

Code: Select all

For Each fol In par.SubFolders
    Call CleanUp(fol,del)
Then I get an error that the extension was not installed.

EDIT: Welp, I couldn't get it to work, so I'm installing MM5.

I would like to use a zip file instead of a folder for backup, but I cannot tick the box - how do I fix that?

=> viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7746&p=258537&hilit ... bc#p258498
this didn't work, "XZip.dll" isn't present in my scripts folder

any suggestions?

Does this MM backup script still work with the new version of MM? Haven’t tried it yet because I loaded the backup playlists script but it errored out after i executed it from MM scripts. I installed it successfully after downloading from Trixmoto’s website. Hence my question on the full MM database backup script.

Thanks

No, MediaMonkey 5 requires Addons to be rewritten to be compatible, but MediaMonkey 5 features a build in back of the MediaMonkey database: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/WebHel ... y_Database

so I still would like to try use a backup in archive form, but what I described here still persists - does anyone have any idea why I cannot tick the box for zip-archive in the backup script?

Don't waste your time with this ancient script. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't - but it always depends on the whim of Windows. It is also vbs. You can already see from the date that it is not maintained at all. And this thread is as long as the program is old.

Better create an automatic task that backs up the data regularly.

Many things don't run in MM5 anymore. The developers seem to have little interest in MM5.
And yes, in MM5 you can create a backup automatically. But only from the database!

Greetings to all,
Can anyone please advise how one would reinstall a backup of their Media Monkeuy Library using Backup 6.0?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Scott_135,

When you run Backup 6.0, the dialogue box will show you the files you can choose to "Backup" and their source location. It will also allow you to choose where to put the backup - the Output Path - and the name of the backup if you want to compress the files into one ZIP.

You have two options:
1). Manually copy the MM.DB file from the Backup Location to the C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey. Personally, I would rename the MM.DB to something like MM.OLD before copying the backup version.

2). Run the restore script. In which case, the script will ask you to confirm the Windows User Directory (or provide an alternative) and Media Monkey directory (e.g. C:\Program Files\MediaMonkey\ ).

This applies to MMW4 only. MMW5 has a limited backup functionality under the main menu - File / Manage Database / Backup / Backup Database Now.
