../../ will take you a couple of levels up the folder tree - on most steups, that will be outside of the sites html folder completely (which is where backups should be).

Last week we had a problem, something was deleted. After installing the last backup on a test server we extracted a copy of the deleted content and all went fine. One of the most useful plugins I have installed.

I use a cronjob on my destination server to login to my site server daily and sync up the backup folder.

Here's the command on the destination server:

rsync -vrltuzDP --rsh='ssh -p2222' admin@mydomain.com:~/backup/ /volume1/Backups/Database/

One thing you do have to do is set up a SSH authentication (I forget the exact term for this) but what it will let you do is login from your destination server into your site server without a password and still encrypt the data transfer.

Hey Paul This mod is really Great,,

i already mark installed :D

But there's one thing that really confuse me,,
i already set my timing at "Scheduled Task Manager" but it's not working.
but when i used "Run Now" it's worked.
i'm using Vbulletin Version 4.1.3

thx before

Your site needs to be busy enough to run the cron jobs.

Thx for the respond Superorb
But could u be more spesific,,i still don't understand,,

Thx A lot :)

Scheduled tasks are called to run when the footer is loaded in a browser. If no one visits the site the footer is never loaded, hence the scheduled tasks are never run. There needs to be activity on the site to run the cron tasks. You can just browse your site for a minute or so and everything should start to catch up.

awesome ,, i already try that nad it was working :) Thx Superorb

How exactly would I do this? Sorry to be a pain.

Can anyone help with an issue... I get this error:

Backup Error : Could not write to destination file ( /backups/Forum-11-01-2012-Full-Backup.sql )

I have set the folder /backups/ to permission 7777 but still the same error. What have i done wrong?
