    Hi BonnieLeePanda,

    Has it done this before? What is the message that shows above the progress bar?

    Hi Jason, Okay, so it stopped being frozen but the backup never starts. Above the progress bar it keeps saying “Waiting for the backup to start.”

    Hi BonnieLeePanda,

    Can you try one thing. Can you create a new blog post, and schedule it to publish automatically in say, a few hours time. See if the post publishes.

    One common cause of this issue is WordPress cannot schedule events. Thus the scheduled publishing won’t work either.

    There’s lots of info (maybe too much!) in the following topic about this problem, including a quick-fix that will work for the majority of people:

    Regards,
