A new bug in the backup routine

the 13.0.23 backup module completes successfully but reports an error. in this case it is backing up to a windows ftp server with no local back up. there is a directory on the server called atlas that the backup is successfully ftp’ed to. it looks like it is trying to create this directory locally.

Backup completed with errors!

That’s pretty self explanatory. Sorry. Try logging in yourself. Maybe you’ve created ‘Atlas’. Maybe you can’t see atlas. Maybe it’s not readable by the FTP user. But the only way to solve this is to actually log into the FTP server yourself and look at what’s happening.
