Replication ComponentLanguage

Replique your website (file, file) and / or database (tables).

It creates an environment of pre-production (for group work prior to publication) and production.This solution allows you to easily clone site

You can have a mirror while managing exceptions (file, file, table) and can be used to re-install a site in minutes after haking.

The system uses "rsync" available on all servers linux in general (even on shared hosting like to OVH for example).

The setup is simple:
Site "A" to site "B", without exception,
Database "A" to database "B", depending on the action plan for each table.

Replication is the only component Joomla (currently) to do this.

I like this extension and it has a lot of potential.
I would rate it Excellent if it had an option to define the B site configuration.php file settings on the fly. ie.

Temp and log file paths.
And ofcourse the most important one, Database name and user credentials.

to define the configuration of site "B", simply replicate the file configuration.php Site "A" and connect to admin the site "B".

but beware, do not forget to return the file configuration.php in exclusion before the next replication site "A"

Worked fine for me, I did have a record in one of my tables that it kept telling me was a duplication so I used my phpmyadmin to delete the problem record. After that it ran with no issues.

Would be nice to see it build and save a new configuration file based on variables set in the settings. I will try to find some time and see if I can submit that to the owner.

Great Job on the Component!

hello

you can replicate all the web / base first, then change the configuration of the site (slave site) in the administration of joomla, then exclude the configuration.php file the next replication (Web Master), not the delete the new configuration (Web Slave)

But if you have any ideas, thank you for your help

This extension installed with easy and looks promising. I was able to replicate the database with no problems at all but I encountered an error replicating the the site. For some reason the configuration,php file was not transferred. When I manually transferred it to the new site all I got was a blank screen.

I look forward to the continued development of the great idea.

Cheers

1 / the configuration file should not be transferred because it has a different setting depending on the site.
- File path
- DB Connect
must indeed transferred by hand the first time or temporarily remove exceptions Replication file (component / replication / preference), then re-setting according to the second configuration
2 / white screen comes the problem of re-setting the configuration file of destination.
Note: If you do not manually set the second configuration (destination). something very simple is to install a joomla (same version as the source) in this folder and go to the end of the installation procedure (thus "deleting file installation"), then replicated by above. and there, it works without problem
