Hi all,
I added the following lines to my .emacs file to enable task
clocking across emacs sessions:
(setq org-clock-persist 'history)
(org-clock-persistence-insinuate)
Now i am unable to quit Emacs with C-x C-c command. I get the following
error message:
Saving file /home/mwnn/.emacs.d/org-clock-save.el...
make-backup-file-name-1: Wrong type argument: stringp, (".~")
Regards,
mwnn

Can you get us a traceback of this?
(setq debug-on-error t)
and then try to quit emacs. It should show some traceback information.
Post it here.
Thanks and Regards

What is the value of backup-directory-alist?
C-h v backup-directory-alist
I think it should be an alist.
Thanks and Regards

I fixed the issue by setting the value of backup-directory-alist as
shown below:
(setq backup-directory-alist '((".~" . "./.emacs.d/")))
Thanks for your support,

I'm not sure I understand this correctly but shouldn't the first entry
be a regex file pattern? This would only appear to match files with
a single character followed by ~?
According to the documentation for that variable, if you want all
files going to the specified directory (which in your case will be
relative to the original file's location), maybe you want ".*" as the
file regex?

Changed the line to
(setq backup-directory-alist '((".*" . "./.emacs.d/")))
