    Hi @petitemelanie,
    please go to BackWPup > Settings > Jobs, set Maximum Script Execution Time to 20 secs.
    Also, please note that you can’t send a file larger than 25mb via email because of it not allowed by email providers, so I would suggest backup to Dropbox, Amazon AWS or your local site instead 🙂

    Hello. Still not working.
    I put it at 20 secs. I also tried 22 and 25, not working either.
    I also did back up to DropBox, that didn’t change anything either.
    What next?

    Hi @petitemelanie,
    The issue may happen because the site files( which will be copied and archived to create a backup) in Backwpup temp folder for some reason has been deleted.

    Could you please check if BackWPUp your hoster has add BackWPUp to blacklist?
    Also, could you please list all currently activated plugins to me? a few screenshots of which plugins activated should help me debug the issue!

    Thank you!

    Hi again @duongcuong96,

    I disabled wp_options, wp_postmeta and wp_revslider_slides, which all threw errors. Would be nice to have them backed up though.

    Additionally now it throws this:

    but that is fine, i guess?

    Any ideas how i can prevent these errors and how i can backup wp_options, wp_postmeta and wp_revslider_slides?

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    @lmuck
    please to go to BackWPUp -> Settings -> Job tab -> Reduce server load and choose medium
    Also, go to BackWPup > Settings > Jobs, set Maximum Script Execution Time setting to about 25 seconds.
    After that, try run the job again.
    Hope that help!

    Hi @duongcuong96
    thanks – Reduce server load was already at max and the Maximum Script Execution Time at 0.

    With the settings as you proposed, the log changes such:
