For some reason my previously working CRON backups, are no longer working and I can't understand why. I'm pretty sure I have the correct cron job path of: /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/mainisknowhow/public_html/testing_site/cli/akeeba-backup.php --profile=2

Any guidance on the above would be much appreciated Nic please?

Regards,
Rob
