Hello,

I just purchased Akeeba pro, uninstalled Akeeba Core, and installed Akeeba Pro.

I'm trying to set it up to store backup files on my Rackspace Cloud Files account, and I've looked all over for where to access the area where I enter my Rackspace account info and I don't see it.

Am I missing something obvious?

Here's a screenshot of the Akeeba Pro dashboard I'm seeing. I've clicked on everything and don't see where to enter in the rackspace info: screenshot 1

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers,
Forest

Please take a look at the documentation first. The basic configuration is a common prerequisite, regardless of the cloud storage service you are going to use.

That said, go to Configuration and look for the post-processing engine. Select the RackSpace CloudFiles. Then click the "Configure..." button next to it to supply your CloudFiles login credentials and the container name you want to use. It is advisable to use only lowercase ASCII characters and numbers (a-z, 0-9) for your container name. Also note that the container name should not start with a number and should not contain a space in its name.

Thanks, Nick!

I read the documentation before posting, at least the sections on uploading the backup files to remote locations, and didn't see where to access the configuration for each option.

I see it now, though...thanks for pointing out the path. :)

Hope all is well with you,
