Hi @klinka
Could you try to untick XML export then try again?

I extend the runtime to 25 seconds first, so I didn’t get error messages anymore in the plugin protocols (only warnings about to large log files), but in the e-mails I received from the daily backup reporting there were even more error messages.
I unticked the XML export, so the protocol in the backend remained the same, no errors, only warnings and I didn’t get any e-mail reporting about the backup from yesterday.
Does unticking the XML export affects a lot the quality of my backup?
Hi @klinka
Does unticking the XML export affects a lot the quality of my backup?
No, it does not affect the quality of your backup archive 🙂
XML export can only export posts, pages…, but database backup already cover that all, so that not necessary 🙂
For more information about XML export, you can check the official WordPress document here: https://wordpress.org/support/article/tools-export-screen/
Hope that may help 😀

even though I unticked the XML export, but in my protocol reporting in the plugin in my backend everything seems fine. Can I just ignore this reportings?
Hi @klinka
please to go to BackWPUp -> Settings -> Job tab -> Reduce server load and choose maximum and then try again.
Is that helps?
