    Hello Everyone,

    First post here, so please be gentle. 🙂

    I have tried running both UpdraftPlus latest and dev version and get the same error.

    I have posted the log file here: http://pastebin.com/5JhjYqrC

    It seems that I only have PclZip installed on my host and not ZipArchive

    Many thanks in advance,

    Matthew 🙂

    Hi,

    0000.606 (0) Closing the zip file returned an error (PCLZIP_ERR_READ_OPEN_FAIL (-2) : Unable to open temporary file ‘pclzip-5414ded66f097.tmp’ in binary write mode). List of files we were trying to add follows (check their permissions).

    This suggests that PclZip doesn’t have write access to where it puts its temporary files. I think by default this is the root directory of your WordPress install. You could either make that directory writable, or alternatively change it with something like this in your wp-config.php:

    define(‘PCLZIP_TEMPORARY_DIR’, ABSPATH.’wp-content/uploads’);

    Then try a fresh backup. You should also update the plugin to the current version first (1.9.26) – yours looks (1.9.20) like it’s a few versions behind.

    David
