On Moodle 2.4 on a Windows 2008 server with IIS 7.6 which user writes the backup file please?
Basically I want my course backup files to go to a none Moodle location. I can't seem to make it happen. I can get them to go to the default location, or a specified folder in the Moodledata folder but I can't get them to go elsewhere. Never had a problem with Moodle 1.9 so I'm thinking it must be using a different user to 1.9 to write the file and hence I need to ensure that user has appropriate permissions to write to said folder. I've tried the obvious user IIS_IUSRS but that doesn't seem to be working either.
Don't know whether it is Moodle that is not actually writing to that folder or Windows that won't let it write.
I've checced the IIS log file, but there is nothing much in there. I'm now running out of ideas, any thoughts where to look?
Thanks
