 * Hello.
 * I have changed my web to an VPS server and i’m having problems with WP-DBManager.
   Fist of all i was changing the directories of the backup, and the MySQL Path 
   and the MySQL dump path are the same in my server /usr/bin.
 * I have seen the directory and the mysql executable and the dump. The plugin says
   me that these executables no exist. But if i press backup db and the process 
   finish well.
 * I have seen in Internet that there is not possible to detect certainly the access
   to those files.
 * I don’t mind if the red message apears, but i have noted that if the message 
   read apears the plugin doesn’t run the scheduled works.
 * Thanks for all

 * Yes i have seen this thread but i don’t want to add /usr/bin to the openbase 
   dir because i think that applications can access and write to /usr/bin can be
   a risk for the server because /usr/bin has writing permissions.
 * So, if without put this the WPDB-Manager can do the backup i preffer left the
   open_base_dir as now and see the red messages.
 * So i think the method to know if this executables are accessibles is bad because
   in my case i see the error message but if i do a backup the backup finish correctly.
   
   Thanks.
