# [Plugin: BackWPup] curl error?

 * Hi there!
    Version 1.7.1 works great but I sometimes I get a curl error, reading
   in the log like this: `[FEHLER] cURL:`
 * As I see it happens on jobs with planning/cron (I have weekly jobs so I got them
   Friday night…). When manually running I don’t get the mistake…
 * Don’t know what that means? Can I anything do?
 * Thanx for any help!

   185 sec. 2011-04-02 06:18.18: [ERROR] Backup Aborted working to long!!!
 * As the log shows, the backup proces is running from april 1 until april 2
 * And even thought it says “Backup Aborted” it still hangs and I have to click “
   clear” (version 1.7.1)
 * Seems to be difficult to fix this problem.

 * Thanx Daniel for the new version!
    The curl error is gone!
 * But there is a new error with Dropbox – when manually running and with cron:
   `[
   FEHLER] Dropbox-API-Schnittstelle: Bad oauth_signature for oauth_signature_method'
   PLAINTEXT'`
 * I tried with existing job (successfull authed a few days ago) and tried cron…
   Also added a new job and did a new authentification (successful) but always gives
   that error…
 * Send you mail with new lang file…
 * Thanx, Dave 🙂
