I'm just did a backup on a LIVE site

Then I used KICKSTART to on a new URL

 

When I went to Akeeba Backup to backup my new site I go this

File <root>/administrator/components/com_akeeba/Model/ConfigurationWizard.php Line 74

Hello,

I suspect that your output folder is not valid. Can you please get inside the Profile configuration and check for the stored path? Just to be sure, save the profile and try again to run the Wizard.

I don't have access to anything from Akeeba Backup. Just a screen of Debug info and system info

 

Again this was from a Akeeba backup from another live site - to a new website using kickstart pro.

 

Should I just re-install akeeba backup

There are two options here:

- You uninstall Akeeba Backup and install it again. You will lose every profile and stored backups

- I connect to your website and try to manually change the value directly from the database. You will keep your profiles and backups, but it will take some time
