I am able to run a cp command, copying a file to the same share with no issues - confused.com

Any input would be much appriciated

does the httpd user have read/write access to your backup directory and does it exist where you want it to be?

Good point!! Just did a backup to default and a copy. Works a treat.

@dicko nailed it.

When you’ve mounted the windows share, you haven’t mounted it with the correct permissions. At a guess, it’s defaulted to ‘nobody/nobody’ with 755 permissions or something.

Make sure the user is ‘asterisk’.
