Description of my issue:

The file cli/akeeba-backup.php is missing in my installation.
Hence I cannot make CRON backups.

Can you post the code, then I can insert the file into my installation myself.

Hello Kristen,

Please try reinstalling Akeeba Backup Professional 3.8.2 a second time on your site, without uninstalling it first. Sometimes Joomla! "forgets" to copy several files, especially when you upgrade from Core to Professional or when installing a major update. The double installation fixes the issue. Apparently, the second time you try the installation Joomla! does copy all files.
