problem with doing backups

  • i have a problem with performing backups of my database. when i try to do one i get this message;

    You are not allowed to perform backups.

    i find this strange because i’m the only user (admin of course) at my blog. i HAVE been able to perform backups earlier, but with an older version of wordpress if i recall correctly.

    any thoughts on this? thanks on beforehand for any help.

    anyone?

    Did you take a look at your logfiles (if available to you)? This helped me a lot when moving a WordPress-installation from one server to another. The problem (in my case) was a not-set permission.

    Maybe you just did the update as another user than the BLOG “needed”? By the way: I did the updates “by hand” with PHPmyAdmin although there was this link in the WordPress2-Backend. Just because I was used to it (and could control, WHAT was backed-up).
