[ic] backup with the full spreadsheet output

Hi All,

I have IC running for a significant cart. Would like to do some backups 
and move it to another machine as well.

I have tried the spreadsheet output for all tables, ie create a 
spredsheet backup for a reload. It seems to run fine. Problem is 
the .xls file size is 0. If I run the normal export/default file all is 
ok and the files drop into the same directory on the server so it isn't 
protections.

IC 4.8.2, RH7.1, Perl 5.6.0. Have all the perl modules installed but 
there were some hassles in getting the perl side to work originally. 
The IC has only some extremely minor cosmetic changes.

Any ideas to check out.

Different problem but we also have one item that is in (Admin) product 
and inventory, searchable etc just fine, but cannot be found in the 
main cart.  All the other products are setup the same and are working 
as expected. Another reason I would like to do a backup to spreadsheet, 
check it out and reload.

Regards
kevin
