THis is what I have but it is not running:

/usr/bin/php /home/XXXXXXXXXX/public_html/administrator/components/com_akeeba/altbackup.php -profile=1

I contacted the host and they have confirmed that the path to php is correct, and the XXXXXXX above is replacing our username.

We have it set to run 03***

which is every day at 3AM.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

The only problem I am seeing is that it should be --profile (two dashes in front) not -profile (one dash in front).
