Title: updraft plus database backup error Last modified: November 16, 2023 --- # updraft plus database backup error * Resolved [rkalasek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rkalasek/) * (@rkalasek) * [2 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/updraft-plus-database-backup-error/) * ```wp-block-code i was just trying to do a backup with updraft plus (free version). things do pretty well at first - even at the beginning of the database backup everything runs fine. but at a certain point the process stops with an error messages and resumes after a certain period ... but obviously runs into the same problem again. the log-file doesn't provide any valueable information to me - so i would highly appreciate help for that issue. see the relevant part of the log: .791 (0) Table wp_wftrafficrates: Total expected rows (approximate): 00172.793 (0) Table wp_wftrafficrates: Rows added in this batch (next record: 0): 0 (uncompressed bytes in this segment=566) in 0.00 seconds0172.796 (0) Table wp_wftrafficrates: finishing file(s) (2, 0.3 KB)0172.817 (0) Table wp_wfwaffailures: Total expected rows (via COUNT): 00172.819 (0) Table wp_wfwaffailures: Rows added in this batch (next record: -1): 0 (uncompressed bytes in this segment=527) in 0.00 seconds0172.824 (0) Table wp_wfwaffailures: finishing file(s) (2, 0.3 KB)0172.825 (0) Errors occurred whilst backing up the tables;
