This blog is not updated any more. Here's the new blog.
How can you backup in an easy way the entire Joomla site, both the files and the database?
An easy-to-use plugin that does provide these features is JoomlaPack, http://www.joomlapack.net/, that backups your site and creates a useful installer to easily recover your system.
If you want an automated backup, you can use JomBackup. You can find it at the address http://www.jomres.net/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=20&Itemid=79.
Another option could be JoomlaCloner. http://joomlaplug.com/
Happy backup!

What about using JoomlaXplorer to zip the complete Joomla installation? All these methods listed above work great if you have a relatively small Joomla web site. But if you are running a complex Joomla web site you really need to set up a server script to automatically backup up a complete domain.

For Joomla 1.5 database backup, there’s LazyBackup 2, an open source extension that’s doing a great job too :
