How to install mysqlbackup?

I would like to use mysqlbackup to do incremental backups. However I can't figure out how to install it.

I have mysql-server installed. The documentation (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-enterprise-backup/3.7/en/mysqlbackup.incremental.html) seems to suggest it should already be installed but it's not. I'm running mysql on ubuntu.

It's part of mysql-commercial-backup-9.1.0-1.1.el9.x86_64.rpm package, so you'll have to install this package, reboot mysqld and then use mysqlbackup

If you use linux.First u can download the install soft from web. e.g. meb_xxxx.rpm. Then run the command: rpm -ivh meb_xxxx.rpm The MEB will install in the path /opt/mysql/meb_xxxx default. Then u can use the mysqlbackup commande in the ./bin/ directory.

You're in luck, someone recently wrote a comprehensive writeup of how to install automysqlbackup on Ubuntu.

https://gist.github.com/janikvonrotz/9488132

They use a different approach to installing it - not using apt-get, but downloading the source and running the install shell script. I hope this works for you, good luck!
