After I upgraded the website from joomla 3 to joomla 4.2 and akeeba backup 9.2.7 (following all the instructions) front end backup does not work anymore.

Front end backup worked on the "old" Joomla3 site.
The backup that is triggered from front-end backup works when initiated manualy from the "One-click Backup" option..

When using curl (curl -L --max-redirs 10000 "https://ipheion.eu/index.php?option=com_akeeba&view=backup&key=[not included for securiy reasons]") to check with correct key,
I get a 404 message (Component not found).

Akeeba Backup 9's component name has changed from com_akeeba to com_akeebabackup. Please read the documentation for Akeeba Backup 9. Alternatively, go to Components, Akeeba Backup for Joomla, Schedule Automatic Backups. As you can see the information in both places has been updated with the new component name.

Thank you for your quick reply.
The devil is in the details....(even when reading the documentation).
Changing com_akeeba to com_akeebabackup fixed it!
