Export function not working

    Hi,

    I don’t know whether this is an multisite problem or not but the export function doesn’t work anymore. I’ve had the problem once before but I figured out that Firefox was causing the problem. This time it doesn’t work in any browser.
    The export is basically running and running without getting an xml file to save. Sometimes I’m getting an server time out error. I tried to deactivate all plugins, changed the themes… no luck.

    Any other ideas or suggestions?
    Thanks

    It could be a combination of a large amount of content to export and a server with low resources and/or low timeout threshold. If you’re intending to use the XML to import into another site, you may want to consider doing it as an SQL via phpMyAdmin or similar instead.

    As karp suggested, it’s probably big data + php memory. How big is that site’s wp_x_posts table?

    Hi guys,
    thanks for all your help. The Proxy Server at work was causing the problem…

    Problem solved, thanks again for your help!
