Go to your Scheduled Task Manager in the ACP and run the cron job.

Hi,
It is giving me this error
Database Backup
An error occured during the MySQL backup. Details (Could not open Destination SQL file for writing.)

you must give full path for backup folder in mysqlbackupconfig.php.
like this /home/user/public_html/forum/databasebackup. after you give a permission mode 777 to this folder. After you can take backup.

I did that :(
Saad

Well you haven't got it right - that is a simple permissions error, your web server does not have write permissions to the folder you have pointed the backups at.

Paul any different idea?

any idea why I am getting this?

Folder Permissions - Look back a few posts (to post #55).

Not really, it works fine if the server allows it to run. About the only thing I can change is to reset the timeout at the start of each table - but tbh, that's unlikely to make any difference as it seems as though your host has somehow set php to ignore the directive.

I chmodded my folder

/httpsdocs/backup (no trailing backslash) to CHMOD 777

Any other ideas?

Nope, it's a permissions error, only you (or your host) can fix them.
