Backup folder is not accessible by the admin user

[WiseBeetle]

I'm trying to use the Admin Backup/Transfer tool to export the backups to this folder:

/home/wisebeetle/domains/wisebeetle.com/public_html/mybackup/

The directory does exist, but I get this error:

Path /home/wisebeetle/domains/wisebeetle.com/public_html/mybackup does not exist or is not accessible by the admin user.
Permission denied.

The reason I want to export it to this folder is that I want a PHP script to then export these backups to S3, and I chose this directory since PHP does not have access to the /home/admin/admin_backups/ folder.

Why am I getting this error and how do I resolve it?

Also, if you do know of a better way to export scheduled backups to S3 then please let me know.

Thanks.

Ive made a script some days ago for a customer with s3.

Search on google for s3cmd, then you will be able to send (using cronf or example) the backups files to an s3 bucket.

Thanks for tip about s3cmd!

Do you have a script that I can use (and configure on the cron jobs to run once a day) that goes through the admin_backups directory, creates a directory in the chosen S3 bucket with today's date, upload all the files and then deletes them from the local admin_backups directory?

yes, the script i made do this things (except remove the local copy but would be easy to implement).
