Moved my server to an amazon lightsail. Tried setting up the backup but getting the following error:

This is often because a previous backup didn't work.

Look in your backup directory and delete unfinished backups.

Normally that should solve your problems.
 
Moved my server to an amazon lightsail. Tried setting up the backup but getting the following error:
Try to create manually this directory /backup and make it writable (chmod it to 0777 recursive)
 
I did both mentioned above and sitll getting an error:

My backup folder is : /home/bitnami/backup
My Web folder is : /home/bitnami/htdocs

Does it matter than my my backup folder is not in my htdocs folder.

That is the best way. The backup manager is running when the daily command is running. You can enable debugging as explained here and run the daily command manually with the --verbose=1 flag.
