Backing up

[jeffuk123]

Hello

 

I am trying to backup the database.

 

I am new to OScommerce and trying to learn by checking out the website and support forums, although i'm beginning to feel that OScommerce is more hassle than its worth. It seems that just about every configuration requires checking through the forum.

 

Anyway,

1. I have created a folder in the root of admin called backups.
   
2. I then added the following line to the includes\configure.php file:- define('DIR_FS_BACKUP', DIR_FS_ADMIN . 'backups/');
   
3. I have uploaded the changes to the webhost
   
4. Permissions on the backup folder are set to 777
   

Yet the following error still shows:-

 

"Error: Backup directory does not exist. Please set this in configure.php"

 

Please can anyone help with this?

 

Many thanks,

Jeff

Did you add it to your /admin/includes/configure.php file, or the catalog one?

:unsure:

 

Needs to be in the admin one.
