ERROR:
This script could not detect your live site's URL. Please visit Akeeba Backup's Control Panel page at least once before running this script, so that this information can be stored for use by this script.

BACKUP ABORTED DUE TO CONFIGURATION ERRORS

I have been all over the Akeeba Control panel. Using CRON successfully on other sites on same server.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Try this:

- Go to Akeeba Backup and click on Component Configuration. Don't change anything, just press Save.
- Log out of your site and log back in.
- Go to Akeeba Backup's Control Page.
- Go to the Configuration page and click on Save.
- Repeat the above step once more.

Now the live site URL should be saved to a hidden component configuration option and the CRON job should be able to work again.
