In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] PHP Compatibility@michaldybczak, basically what it comes down to is that we’re trying to maintain compatibility with PHP 5.3. But many of the libraries we use have certain issues with PHP 7 in the versions that are still compatible with 5.3. If we fully upgrade them, they will no longer be backwards compatible.
Still a great number of users are using 5.3. Hopefully soon we can upgrade our minimal version, but that’s the reason right now.
I hope that makes sense.

In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Additional S3 RegionsHi @damienbowman, I think you can just select US Standard and it should work fine. That’s what I’ve used for buckets in US East.
Hi @benutzerfreund, most hosting control panels allow you to create a cron job. Are you saying yours does not have this functionality?
Thanks @dialex, so happy it’s working!
Yeah it’s a common mistake and we should probably add something to dispel that, or even do what users expect and call set_time_limit(0) when it is 0. It’s something I’ve thought about. We’ll definitely take it into consideration.
@benutzerfreund, instead of using alternate wp cron, have you tried disabling wp-cron and calling it via a cron job instead? This is more reliable IMO.

In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Additional S3 RegionsHi @damienbowman, have you tried it and gotten an error? My buckets are also in that region but I’ve had no problem backing up to S3.
Hi @dialex, actually that’s a misconception. The plugin doesn’t try to set the php maximum time limit, so all setting it to 0 does is allow the script to run until PHP’s time limit is reached.
I’d set it to something low like 20 seconds and see what it does.
@benutzerfreund, if you go to your own wp-cron.php, are you able to load it?
In your case @snowbird12, your wp-cron isn’t functioning at all. Please go here and you’ll see what I mean: https://oekoladenthun.ch/wp-cron.php
So there’s something wrong with your wp-cron. Please ask your host about this.
Hi @papoum, just replying to let you know I’m looking into this. It’s possible that the plugin just isn’t restarting at the right times.

In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Log Error “SIGHUP”Hi @lokmancu, it really doesn’t have anything to do with the plugin itself. Somehow the server is killing off the processes, and that’s the warning you are receiving. Only the host would know about the parameters around when processes are killed.

In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Backups slower and largerHi @grammarphobe,
None of those would cause the issue.
I would open a recent archive, and compare it to an old archive that was smaller, and see what is different about them.
Hi @ksymer, the only major error looks to be the blog.tar.gz file. As the warning says, it is too large to backup. I’d suggest perhaps moving it above your document root if you want to keep it, or you can exclude it in your job.
