Is Database Backup module dead now?

I want a convenient way to backup my data but MySQLDump doesn't work for me (I don't have the path to the binaries).
Database Backup always did the job well, but it hasn't been updated since Mar 2006 and throws an error in the latest builds.
Does anyone know if this is still being developed?

You don't know the path or don't have the permission to locate and execute the binaries?
Because, if your only problem is not knowing where or how to search, maybe we can help you. The latest build of Mysql Dump as a automatic locator that works well on most installation.

I just used Database Backup on 1.0b6 and it worked you have to change line 268 to this, take out RowCount and replace with RecordCount
if ($dbresult && $dbresult->RecordCount() > 0)

@ Mahjong:

I think I don't have permission. Even after installing 1.2 I still get the message:
Invalid path to MySQL utilities
@ Mark:
That's done the trick, thanks! Perhaps the version in the Forge could be updated with this?

And don't forget to check /var/log/httpd/error_log or its equivalent. You won't always see an error in the rendered web pages. Also you need to insure that php.ini and all the various modules you are working on have error_reporting turned on when troubleshooting. I have gone down that winding path so many times...
