Hello,

I try to create a cron job but I get an error by mail:

No entry for terminal type "dumb";
using dumb terminal settings.

no file is created in the backup directory. I have the files for manual backup.

I can not find information on your site. Could you help me ?

for information, I use:

/usr/bin/php /var/www/vhosts/xxxxxxx.be/httpdocs/cli/akeeba-backup.php

joomla 3.4.8
php 5.5.14
akeeba backup pro
Web hosting: ovh.com, plesk version 11.5

Thanks for your help.

The message comes right after my hosting cron job.

But the message is not from akeeba backup pro?

No, that message is created by your hosting, long before Akeeba Backup starts
