The Backup button will not appear if PHP is unable to locate or write to the backup folder defined by DIR_FS_BACKUP.

the backup page in admin
shows the link as
Backup Directory: /home/httpd/vhosts/realraptors.co.uk/httpdocs/zen-cart-v1.1.3/admin/backups/
which is correct
Andy
Is it possible your server is running PHP in Safe Mode ? If so, the backup button will not be displayed then either.

how do i find this out? is it a call to my hosting company tomorrow?
Andy
Admin->Tools->Server Info.
Search for "safe_mode"
Yes - call your hosting company and ask to be put on a server that doesn't run in safe mode.

"Result code: 127"
"Skip Lock option (check this if you get a LOCK TABLES permissions error)

I have same error. I did a backup last week and everything worked fine. Now all of a sudden I get this error. /admin/backups is CHMOD 777
Why would it stop working when it was working previously?
==/edit
Well after nosing around I learned that, despite the Zen instruction to turn on safe mode, this backup utility will not function if it is on. All the buttons etc. appear but it won't work. I either have to leave safe mode off or remember to turn it off when I want to do a backup.
