I'm kinda stuck. The default value for the path is "../../backups/". Where is that directory located?

Thanks!

I am having the same problem. not too sure where to put a backups folder at....or if that's what I have to do...help would be greatly appreciated.

../ means up one level.

So if your forum is in /domain/public_html/forum, it will be at /domain/backups

Backup Error : Could not write to destination file ( ../../backups/2012-01-04/Forum-2012-01-04-Vb4_access.sql )

Sorry paul, I still cant get it to work, /backups is at the same level as /public_html

permissions are set at 777 also.

again sorry....but all I have to do is put a backups directory at the same level as my public_html right?

Possibly you have php open_basdir restrictions in place - esp if you are using Plesk.

Not too sure where that's at. I'm using Cpanel. I will try to find that. thanks paul.

Any ideas?

Did you create the folder ?

If so, fix the permissions on the server so it can write to the folder.

Yah I have a backups folder set to 777, where should it be? At the moment it's just in public_html/mysite.com
