I just installed the latest backup and migrate via drush with this command:
drush dl backup_migrate
drush en backup_migrate

When trying to backup via the UI, I get the following error:
Could not run backup because the source '' is missing.

I also tried to run the command via drush with the following errors:
$ drush bam-backup
Could not find the source 'db'. Try using 'drush bam-sources' to get a list of available sources or use 'db' to backup the Drupal [error]
database.
WD backup_migrate: Could not find the source 'db'. Try using 'drush bam-sources' to get a list of available sources or use 'db' to backup [error]
the Drupal database.
$ drush bam-sources
ID Name Operations

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Your database is not available to be backed up. What kind of database is it? Only MySQL databases are supported at this time. Some MySQL databases cause weird errors that prevent them from being backed up, but I've never been able to reproduce that issue.

There has been no response for a while so I'm going to close off the issue. Please do reopen it against the latest version if this is still a problem.

The module works fine for me if I use the browser based side of things, but if I attempt to use drush to backup and migrate, It fails regardless of source or source or destination. I'm using sources and destinations that are listed under bam-sources and bam-destinations.
