Hi there,
I had the same issue. I’m no specialist at all, but I’ve managed to solve the thing after two painful days of research.. try adding this to your wp-config.php:
define( ‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true );
Manual backup works for me now. I guess that the scheduled one will work as well, but I didn’t test it yet.
Good luck!
Thanks for the reply mate, added that code to my wp-config.php file, still nothing. This plug-in is a dud methinks.
And what about adding this:
<Files "wp-cron.php">
Allow from All
Satisfy Any
</Files>
into your .htaccess? (I guess you already tried that one..)
No I didn’t have that, just put it in but no luck.
I actually saw a “CRON-running” message in the address bar but nothing in my Dropbox, maybe getting closer to a solution.
Thanks again.
Yeah, it’s really tricky.. In my case the issue was difficult to find out as even in debug mode:
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
in wp-config.php, the error wasn’t showing up, no clues at all.
Let me know if you manage to solve this problem.
