EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.
Description of my issue:
Running the backup via the command line like
php <joomla_install>/cli/akeeba-backup.php
give the following warning:
PHP Warning: mysqli_query() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in <joomla_install>/administrator/components/com_akeeba/akeeba/drivers/mysqli.php on line 314
In the Akeeba log file the following warning appears:
PHP WARNING on line 124 in file <joomla_install>/administrator/components/com_akeeba/akeeba/drivers/mysql.php:
mysql_close() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given
I already re-installed the latest version of Akeeba Backup Pro and tried with a new profile (with default settings) but that didn't help. The backup actually runs through successfully but we'd like to avoid the warning as we get notified about it when the backup runs automatically as a cronjob.
