Auto Backup Script
Hi,
I am sure a number of people out there use Justin Cooks backup up cron script, my question is am getting an email sent me to me once cpanel tries to run the cron job and I am not sure what it means. I am guess it means it cant access the ftp that I wont it to send the backup to, but could someone clarify this please.
The email response from cron contains the following;
/bin/sh: /home/username/public_html/sender.php: Permission denied
Below is the script that I am using, is it correct? it was quiet straight forward so I assume it is;
Thank you.....PHP Code:<?php
// PHP script to allow periodic cPanel backups automatically, optionally to a remote FTP server.
// This script contains passwords. KEEP ACCESS TO THIS FILE SECURE! (place it in your home dir, not /www/)
