Hi,

I installed BM on a test D7 install and then absent-mindedly deleted the BM folders it automatically created. I wasn't aware that the folders were deleted and when I tried to save a backup, the system told me it couldn't save the files and no message as to why.

I think there should be a check to see if the folder exists and a message displayed saying so if not.

OR -

it actually recreates the folders again and displays a message saying that it has done so.

Obviously minor, but I was momentarily caught out and I didn't think this would be the problem as the mod cleverly created the folders to begin with!

CORRECTION - my colleague just did a quick check and the module doesn't actually create the folders initially. Maybe this could be looked at?

The module creates the folders the first time they are needed. That means that if you delete them they should be recreated the next time you do a backup. If this is not happening then it is most likely a file permissions issue on your server. Are you getting any errors or warnings when you attempt to backup? Do you have your private file directory set up with write permissions from the server? Please make sure you have the latest dev and let me know if you're still having problems
