What permissions should it be set at? Then I can compare what is there now.

Your webserver is telling you it cannot see that file.

So either it has very weird permissions on it (it should have read for everyone set) or the file simply isnt there (are you sure you uploaded it to the correct place).

Yes. The current permissions are 444. I know its there....I can see it in the file manager. Im pretty confused.

Try permission of "644". This will give it write capabilities. I looked at my install and all files under includes and includes/cron have a permission of 644.

OK. It appears to be working now. Will update results.

It worked!!!!!!!

:D .

Just install and it starts backing up, but then aborts as the PHP times out. I have a very large database, my posts table is over 2 gig.

Any way to get this from timing out?

Also anyways to get it to only store 5 days of backups? Thanks!

To limit your storage you either have to download a copy and delete the remote copy when you are done, or you can alter the date field so it overwrites when a new one is made. Maybe 7 if you set it for days of the week.

As far as the timeout issue, you may have to fragment your backup. See settings.

I had the same problem when restoring a backup. There is a setting in php to extend the wait period.
