Description of my issue:
Using the Backup default profile or the site transfer wizard.
the site gives me this warning, but I know 100%$ for a fact the username password and the paths are correct.
double checked...it even passes the configuration wizard just fine...and I have akeeba running flawlessly on other site son this same box.
and whats strange is it backed up just fine last night using lazy BU.
I needed to move this to a new server directory today...and used the transfer wizard and it gave me a ton of problems transferring to the new domain it told me the directory was incorrect or not ready or the password was wrong but I know this isnt the case.
..then after that it wouldnt even initiate a backup at all, since the transfer wizard failed, I was just going to BU and download the jpa and do it using kickstart...but it wont even BU now.
Backup Failed
The backup operation has been halted because an error was detected.
The last error message was:
Wrong FTP hostname or port (host:port = :21)
