"Don't forget to create the 'administrator/backups' directory in your Wordpress root and make it fully writeable." 

Do we still need to do this in this new version?  And if so - one question - Do you mean   root/wp-admin/'administrator/backups' or do you mean   root/administrator/backups/cgi-bin/stats/stockbox/wp-admin/ ?Confused  Just want to be sure.

Hi there! Yes, that directory still needs to be created, the correct path for it is

 

Backup Start Part + "/administrator/backups"

 

Where the Backup Start Path is the path setup in your XCloner Config.

Looks like everything set up just fine. It appears PHP is actually at 5.2.17 We have 3600 max execution time and  PHP memory limit is 96M.  I have not set up the cron section.  Are the settings above fine for automation?

 

Smile By the way I will gladly make a donation to start - but have to get the Client's PayPal code which will take a few hours yet - its only 5:49 AM where I  am.

The above settings seem ok for running the automate cron backup, make sure you setup an email address for the cron log to be sent to.

 

Cheers! Ovidiu

"Where the Backup Start Path is the path setup in your XCloner Config." I did spend 2 evenings trying to solve this out! So why not to put this line as a hint in XCloner configuration page... ?? please.. Wink

Hi Jukka, please check the XCloner Config first tab, you will see there the Backup Start Path, which should indicate an absolute path to the folder you want to backup.

 

Hope it helps! Ovidiu
