I have a question about the backup path in the mysqlbackupconfig.php-file, I could not find the anwser in previous posts:
I currently use this code and it works just fine.

$backup['DUMP_PATH'] = DIR.'/backup/'; 


The DIR point to "www.domain.org/forum/" and my backups works just fine.

However, I would like to backup to a folder outside the forum-folder. But I have not managed to get the syntax right. Naturally, I created the folder 'backup' on the server before editing the config-file.
I get the following error messgae :

An error occured during the MySQL backup. Details (Could not open Destination SQL file for writing.)

I have tried several alternatives (see below) but none has worked.

PHP Code:

$backup['DUMP_PATH'] = 'http://www.domain.org/backup/'; 


PHP Code:

$backup['DUMP_PATH'] = '/www.domain.org/backup/'; 


PHP Code:

$backup['DUMP_PATH'] = '/backup/'; 


Is it at all possible to make the script to write the backup outside the forum-folder, and if yes,
