 * Hi,
 * I’ve done backups before no issue, and restores again no problem. But yesterday
   my restore failed, and I had to get my host to restore. I tried to then do another
   backup with yourselves, and get the following error message:
 * The backup apparently succeeded (with warnings) and is now complete (May 06 21:
   42:30)
 * I’ve had a look at the log details, which state roughly the following errors:
 * PHP event: code E_WARNING: filemtime(): stat failed
 * Output: zip warning: binziptest/test.zip not found or empty
    Output: adding: 
   binziptest/subdir1/ (in=0) (out=0) (stored 0%) Output: adding: binziptest/subdir1/
   subdir2/ (in=0) (out=0) (stored 0%) (0) Output: adding: binziptest/subdir1/subdir2/
   test.html (in=131) (out=107) (deflated 18%)
 * 0040.198 (0) [Warning] uploads/…… unreadable file – could not be backed up`
 * Are you able to please help as to what is suddenly going wrong? Thank you
