Hi Everyone
To provide some background, I recently upgraded my moodle from 1.9.x to the latest revision of 2.3. The vast majority of site functions operate flawlessly, save for some minor, but noticeable exceptions, such as backup.
I am attempting back up a course through the inteface, and receive the following error:
error/file_not_writable
There is a link that directs me to the following page to get more information as to what is wrong, but it contains nothing of use:
http://docs.moodle.org/23/en/error/moodle/file_not_writable
The error suggests a permissions failure - I am not sure of this is the case, and if it is, is the error in the file system or in the database...
I consider myself an intemediate Unix/Linux admin and am looking for some instructions that can guide me to a) better uinderstand this error (its source and the reason for the effect) and b) work instructions on how to fix the issue so I may backup courses.
I appreciate everyones help, and apologize in advance if this is a re-post. I have searched the forums and have come up short.
Thank you all
