Hi, on one of my sites I have an issue with the cronjob on the webserver. This is not working and in the e-mail I get: 

In AkeebaBackup.php line 128:  FOF 3.0 is not installed 

The only difference with a FOF file is that on other websites I see this under extentions

file_fof40

and this is not there on the problem website. 

Is in here the reason that the cron job is not working and is there a way to reinstall this file?

Sorry, I get a bit lost. I searched in every folder, but only in de \libraries folder I find a folder \fof40

I deleted that folder and installed pkg_akeebabackup-9.6.1-pro 2 times.

Now the 'One-click Backup' is indeed uploading the file to my Onedrive again. 

But via the cronjob no back-up is taken. Cronjob runs, and e-mail message after the job only includes: 

"In AkeebaBackup.php line 128:

  FOF 3.0 is not installed "

 

Can you tell me more about this messages or about the plugin that I should uninstall?

Hi Nicholas, 

I am using these 2 cronjobs;
monthly:
/usr/local/bin/php /home/elslooinfo/domains/elsloo.info/public_html/cli/joomla.php akeeba:backup:take

and
daily:
/usr/local/bin/php /home/elslooinfo/domains/elsloo.info/public_html/cli/joomla.php akeeba:backup:take --profile=3

Both have (suddenly) not been working for several weeks. We are trying figuring out what hase changed, there have only been minor updates.

I have multiple websites and on all of them (also with the same extensions) the cronjob does still work. When updating to J4, I always follow the procedure to modify the cronjob as well.

We just can't figure out why it suddenly went wrong.

Hi, 

It took a while until the website was free to disable the RSfirewall otherwise debug didn't work at all.

But with debug on + maximum I see all sorts of lines from other plugins but nothing from Akeeba or the backup. Also the mail stil shows only In AkeebaBackup.php line 128: FOF 3.0 is not installed 

 

Should I run the command line within Joomla or webserver side (as the normal cron job)?

It took a while, because I had to plan this via a staging environment.

 

It turned out that the culprit was a leftover Akeeba plugin. When I uninstalled it manually and installed akeeba 2x, everything was solved. Cron job on the server are running again.

So you can close this ticket after reading ;)

Someone has to be the lucky one 
 
That explains why we only suffer from it at 1 website, even though we have some identical installations.
