[Opensim-users] How to set up autobackup

[Unadecal Arado]

[Update]

I got curious, so I read the relevant Wiki pge (
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Feature_Proposals/AutoBackup), selected a
currently unused simulator running Metropolis 0803, which is the current
version, inserted  this section in the Opensim.ini file:

[AutoBackupModule]
    AutoBackupModuleEnabled = true
    AutoBackupInterval = 10
    AutoBackupDir = /Googledrive/Opensim-005/Embassy/OAR/
    AutoBackupNaming = Time
AutoBackupBusyCheck=False

I then restarted the simulator and verified that the AutoBackup
configuration had taken effect by way of the "config show" console command.
It all seemed set, but there are no backups taking place. I have no clues
to follow at this point since the log does not provide any details at all.
