Thx Nicholas for your fast response.

My Provider is 1and1 Germany. They said that the php6 path would end in an php5.4 version.

Hi Nicolas,

after a Phonecall with my Provider they changed the Path again and still the same Problem.

/usr/local/bin/php6: No such file or directory

if i take a look at my phpinfo.php the at the top it says PHP Version 5.4.16

and the " Configuration File (php.ini) Path " is /usr/lib/php6

what file do the cronjob need ?

regards

Hi nicholas,

I had a phonecall with the support and they tryed it manuel with this path and the cronjob worked. The backup was done.
