What should my path be???
Incorrect path or mysqldump utility not executable.
Check $_DB_mysqldump_path definition in config.php.
Variable currently defined as: /backups/

Still need some help here. I want to install some plug ins and one that I want to install says to do a backup but I can't (as described above). Is there some kind of permission I must set on a directory or something is that my problem? Or is there a certain directory that this must be executed from?

Depends on the operationg system and where on the server it has been installed. Typically (on a Unix system), it's /usr/bin/mysqldump (which is also the default setting in Geeklog) or /usr/local/bin/mysqldump - but it could also be something else entirely.
If in doubt, contact your hosting service.

My host says the path is this:
/usr/bin/mysqldump
so that's what I use amd when trying to do a backup the error shows this:
Incorrect path or mysqldump utility not executable.
Check $_DB_mysqldump_path definition in config.php.
Variable currently defined as: /usr/bin/mysqldump
And on the top of the page there are these errors showing:
Warning: stat failed for /usr/bin/mysqldump (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs/admin/database.php on line 78
Warning: fopen("/usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/rotozone.com/httpdocs/logs/error.log", "a") - Permission denied in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs/lib-common.php on line 1499

Translated into plain English: Despite what your hosting service told you, the file /usr/bin/mysqldump does not exist (or you don't have the permissions to access it).

For this one, I'd suggest going over the installation instructions again ...

Link to thread
Hope this helps.
