    Hello

    I have just started rolling out BackWPup across all my websites. None of them backed up first time, but one site I am really struggling with is the one listed above. The log I got after last nights attempt ended like this:

  • Hi @andrewfenner
    Could you please try to go to BackWPUp → Settings → Jobs → Maximum script execution time → set to 25 secs then try run the job again?
    Thank you!
    Also, you can take a look at our official documentation for more information: https://backwpup.com/docs/job-restarts-due-to-inactivity-for-more-than-5-minutes/

    Any other suggestions?

    @andrewfenner
    Please Try with Tar archive backup. If it not work, is in your activated plugins have any Amazon related plugin? if so, try to deactivate it then try again.
    Thank you!

    (@andrewfenner)

    Will do. thanks.

    @andrewfenner any news from your issue? Thanks!

    (@andrewfenner)

    I’m afraid not. I have 7 sites which I am trying to backup. 4 work fine with backWPup and 3 just won’t work so I have to use UpdraftPlus for those three. I wonder if it could be a clash with another plugin perhaps?

    @andrewfenner
    Do you install any Amazon related plugins on these 3 sites?
    Thanks!

    Thread Starter andrew.fenner

    (@andrewfenner)

    No I haven’t

    @andrewfenner
    could you change the job to save archive as Tar format?
    Sometime the server zip may cause the 5 minutes inactivity issues.
    Thanks!

    Any idea why the file cannot be found?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi @andrewfenner
    Sorry for the delayed response, please give me your server info by going to BackWPUp -> Settings -> Infomation -> and press “Get debug info”.
    Also, in the server info section -> PHP Memory limit, could you check if in your host there is any single file that larger than the PHP memory limit? Since the backup may hang in this case.
    Thank you
