Akeeba Backup 3.2.2 Bugfix release

Akeeba Backup 3.2.2 (bugfix release) just published

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Akeeba Backup 3.2.2 bugfix release. This release fixes two high priority bugs, affecting Joomla! 1.6 users and subscribers to the Professional release. Affected users are advised to upgrade immediately.

Previous versions up to 3.2 Stable are considered obsolete and will not be supported. 3.2.1 will also not be supported on Joomla! 1.6.

The first issue addressed is Joomla! 1.6 sites being rendered unusable after activating the Lazy Scheduling plugin bundled with Akeeba Backup 3.2.1. This was due to an API change in Joomla! 1.6 and a missing test from our testing procedure. If you were affected by this issue, please rename the file plugins/system/aklazy/aklazy.php and upgrade to Akeeba Backup 3.2.2.

The other issue addressed is the inability to use Live Update to upgrade the Professional edition of our software. Please download Akeeba Backup 3.2.2 and install it on your site using Joomla!'s extension installer, without uninstalling the previous version. Future updates will work automatically. We're sorry for the inconvenience.

We need your feedback! If you haven't done so already, please take 10 minutes to fill out our user survey. Your feedback will allow us to improve our software and services.

As always, Akeeba Backup Core is available free of charge from our downloads section. You can find its documentation in PDF format for off-line reading in the downloads section, or you can view it on-line. All users arestrongly advised to read our Quick Start Guide, available as a PDF file from our downloads section.

Attention subscribers to the Professional release. There is a change in the live update system included in Akeeba Backup after version 3.2.b1. You will need to visit your My Subscriptions page, copy the "Download ID" found towards the bottom and paste it in the Component Parameters page of Akeeba Backup. Failure to do so will mean that you will be unable to upgrade to later versions in the future.

If you want the most powerful features, such as storing your backup archives on the cloud (Amazon S3, DropBox, CloudFiles, Microsoft Windows Azure), transfer them to a different server by FTP/FTPS, exclude extensions with a single click, apply powerful filters and have an integrated restoration feature, it's time to Go Professional. Subscriptions start at 40€ and give you access to free upgrades for a whole year, while allowing you to install and use the software on an unlimited number of domains and continue to do so even after the expiration of your subscription.
