Run 3 websites withe Genesis Corporate them, 2 of them backup nicely, number 3 is now running and says: * [16-apr-2014 17:34:19] Compressing files as TarGz. Please be patient, this may take a moment. * Until now I get 5 warnings everytime, that is takes more than 5 minutes. So now I put it to 900 seconds. Is that a good choice, I don’t know what is the maximum php execution time? * Ah, I already have warning no. 1: [16-apr-2014 17:40:34] WARNING: Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes. * Plugin Contributor [Daniel Hüsken](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielhuesken/) * (@danielhuesken) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/backup-stop/#post-4807205) * The normely maximum webserver execution time is 300 sec. that is why i wuld not go over this value. Best choise is the normel php execution time of 30 secounds. Please also look that temp, cach and backup folders are excluded. * [stepatty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stepatty/) * (@stepatty) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/backup-stop/#post-4807249) * Daniel,I’m not sure what you mean by these two comments: * “Please configure the Maximum script execution time in BackWPup > Settings > Tab: Jobs as vlue use the maximum php execution time.” * “The normely maximum webserver execution time is 300 sec. that is why i wuld not go over this value. Best choise is the normel php execution time of 30 secounds. Please also look that temp, cach and backup folders are excluded.” * Right now, the “Maximum script execution time” in my Jobs tab is set for “0,” which apparently means disabled. Should I make that “30”? * I’m getting this warning: “Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes.” * [Aloys de Vries](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aloysfb/) * (@aloysfb) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/backup-stop/#post-4807250) * The same with me. Now executiontime = 30 seconds. Temp, cach and backup folders are excluded. * Creating of the archive (blue bar) goes up to 56%, the second bar is 6% and reads:“ Restart after 5 minutes”. Above is a yellow warning: “WARNING: Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes.” * The active log (Display working log) reads: [21-apr-2014 19:05:19] 1. Trying to create backup archive … [21-apr-2014 19:05:19] Compressing files as TarGz. Please be patient, this may take a moment. [21-apr-2014 19:05:40] Restart after 29 seconds. [21-apr-2014 19:10:49] WARNING: Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes. [21-apr-2014 19:10:49] 2. Trying to create backup archive… * Every backup-log has 5 warnings. At the bottom of a log I read: “[16-apr-2014 18:03:22] WARNING: Job finished with warnings in 1750 seconds. Please resolve them for correct execution.” * Thread Starter [andre69](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andre69/) * (@andre69) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/backup-stop/#post-4807251) * Daniel , i took another program, * Thank you for your support * Andre Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) The topic ‘Backup stop’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/backwpup/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=3236141) * [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/backwpup/) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/reviews/) * 8 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [andre69](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andre69/) * Last activity: [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/backup-stop/#post-4807251) * Status: resolved
