Backup of files not working with package

HI, I try to use this package

https://github.com/spatie/laravel-backup

Locally (with XAMPP) file and db backup is working.

On my webserver (Digital Ocean with Forge) only db backup is working.

Here is my config file:

http://laravel.io/bin/QNNeV

I have no idea why file backup is not working.

Can someone help?

Thanks, kay899
