pls help
i am already using the latest version...
If you ignore the error, can u backup successfully?
no i am not able to..
they insist i fix those errors
Who is They? The error does not matters because it is just the checking whether the file exists. Just ensure your mysqldump path is right.
how do i get the dump url ?
even my reseller doesn't know and it seem to put there.. dump url cannot be found...
you need to ask your host for the mysqldump path. Alternatively you can try http://www.ilfilosofo.com/blog/wp-db-backup if you do not know the dump path.

I'm having the same problem but the backup file is created in my backup-db folder so I'm not too worried.
I contacted my administrator about the error and his reply was:
"Yes, it looks like a bug. The problem stems from using file_exists() outside of the open_basedir to check the paths, rather than just calling exec() and returning an error only when that fails."
I don't know if that helps or not because it's beyond my technical skills.
The error doesn't matter, it just means it can't detect the path to mysqldump, just fill it in yourself will do. The error should be suppress in 2.31 already.
