I’m using Contabo Object Storage for backups and I need to leave “s3\_backup\_bucket” empty for it to work otherwise it adds the name at the beginnig of the bucket’s url and it doesn’t work.  
Now, if I run the backups manually it works fine and complete the task but the automatic daily backups don’t work. I also shows me this in dashboard:

The server is configured to upload backups to S3, but at least one the following setting is not set: s3\_access\_key\_id, s3\_secret\_access\_key, s3\_use\_iam\_profile, or s3\_backup\_bucket. Go to the Site Settings and update the settings.

Any way to fix this?  
P.S. It used to work fine 'till last week update..
