Speak to your host, you should have permission to delete files on your own account.

Strange. A "full-" backup from 22.5.2010 has 229 MB, from 23.5.2010 has about 200 KB???????

200k is clearly wrong.

That would happen to me occasionally in 3.8.; not with this product. So I just restarted the backup then I got the full download.

I left the setting at the default and made the backups directory in the same folder that contains public_html, not in the public_html folder. Safest place for it.

If I start it manually it works perfect with about 280 MB. If it starts automated at night it stopps after a few 100 KB. No idea...

WOww... 781 MB, in below time.. Nice.. ;) Daily backups :)

Thanks !!!

Just 1 thing, so strange I tried to setup the backup outside the http folder, but everytime I got a couldn't write error, however that folder was 777... Strange, any idea on this. ?

For example, I want the backups to be in /home/forum/backup/daily/

And the permissions are chmod 777 for the daily folder, but still problems writing...

Thanks.

Most likely you have open_basdir restrictions in place, esp if you use Plesk.

Thank you Paul, especially your patience to all of us.

I was using this prior to 4.0 but after reinstalling the new version after 4.0 it was only creating directories, but no files. It was due to having Repair Tables checked, so after taking care of that then enabling block processing, I'm up and running again.

Great product.

Paul, can I use this to FTP the backup to another server after it was done?
