Cannot create folder for logs – wrong paths…

    Hi

    Have been using BackWpUp for some time on another server, and moved my site to a new one with different relative paths. Everything went fine – except for BackWpUp.
    Before my relative path was /home/www/… now it is /var/www/…

    In the Log file folder under settings>logs it says /home/www/..if I choose to reset all settings to default. BUT under the Log file folder path it tells me that “You can use absolute or relative path! Relative path is relative to /var/www/…”

    So if I change it from /home/www/…to /var/www/… manually, and hit save changes and I try to run my backupjob, it gives me the error:

    Cannot create folder: /home/www/…

    But I had just told it to use /var/www/… and this path is still in the settings>logs

    So where do I change the path if not in settings>logs? Is there a way to do this in the DB or???

    Oooohh…I found out myself.
    I had not changed my wp-config.php to my new DB settings, so WP used all the DB data from my old servers DB instead of from the new one. After I changed it, it works like a charm.

    Hopefully this can help others who has maked the same stupid mistake as I did ??
