Describe The Bug
Unfortunately, the Homebridge backup is not running. The path I specified exists but no backups are created there. It is an external drive that is correctly mounted as other services backup there too.

You need to change ownership of the directory to the user account that is running the homebridge process. Current ownership is root based on your directory listing.
you're right
