http://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/27553/mysqldump-error-cant-create-write-to-file It is like I said on Twitter, it's a permissions issue, in this case probably an ownership permission. I'd bet that was a long-ago created folder by some app with a different owner than the system making the dump.

For WordMove (or any product issue) product support is the way to go... or some creative Googling (like removing the file path from your searches). https://www.google.com/search?q=mysqldump%3A+Can%27t+create%2Fwrite+to+file++%28Errcode%3A+2%29&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

You do realize you posted your WP keys to the kingdom on a highly searchable site? Never post your db credentials in an error log on the Internet. If you use that password for anything else anywhere, you'd best change it everywhere now.
