I guess your case will harder to solve. I suggest you will try to install this plugin on another WP installation, possibly on another server, to see if the problem returns there. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Scheduled Backups Failing with BackWPup](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/) * [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [1 year, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/page/2/#post-18217886) * OK, I solved it. * Apologies to Backwpup for my anger towards them, but they need to guide people better on how to troubleshoot. * What I did was to disable all plugins except Backwpup and then test the jobs with scheduling. It worked. Then enable back half of the plugins and test the schedule again, and so on until I filtered it down to the clashing plugin, which is “WP Activity Log”, [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/). * Then I tried to disable/change various what-I-considered-relevant configuration attributes of this plugin, hoping one of them will be the cause, but nothing helped – only deactivating this plugin as a whole – solved this issue. I will open a support post at their wordpress.org page, to let them know about it in parallel. * I hope Backwpup will now have a better direction to solve this, if needed – with the help of the developers of the other plugin. * [@elsoar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elsoar/) , please test if this solution works for you as well.

I am now on the move to another backup plugin. It was nice while it lasted, but that has ended now. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Scheduled Backups Failing with BackWPup](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/) * [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [1 year, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/page/2/#post-18165637) * [@saranshwpm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saranshwpm/) any update on this? I also see other new posts complaining about the same. * Or we need to look for another backup plugin? because it seems backwpup doesn’t do anything to solve this. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Scheduled Backups Failing with BackWPup](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/) * [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [1 year, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/#post-18055779) * The recent version, 4.1.5, did not solve the issue. Even in this version’s release notes there is not mention of relevant solution. * I am sorry to say but it doesn’t look like there is a will by Backwpup to solve this fundamental problem. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] Scheduled Backups Failing with BackWPup](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/) * [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [1 year, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/scheduled-backups-failing-with-backwpup/#post-18026806) * Hi, * The same over here. * I made several checks, and here are my findings: 1. The scheduled job is not run either using wpcron or easycron (with or without its settings checkbox to run wpcron) 2. In all cases a log is not created, while runing the same job manually does create a log, so it is not a log mechanism issue 3. If scheduling the job is done using easy cron, to a weekly schedule in time that a day of the week like today and a time that is the next 5 minutes interval from now – the job is not run, a log is not created and the next schedule is set to be per the schedulin schema (in my case, once a week at the set time), in the next week’s day and time, as if the job did run 4. If scheduling the job is done using wpcron, to a weekly schedule in time that a day of the week like today and a time that is the next 5 minutes interval from now – the job is not run, a log is not created and the next schedule is set to be at… “01/01/1970 at 03:00 by WP-Cron” * Overall, something went awfully wrong in this version’s scheduling engine. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Companion Auto Update] No longer auto update](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-longer-auto-update/) * Thread Starter [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [2 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-longer-auto-update/#post-17322452) * Hi, Any news about this? * Also, this is from today’s date – it looks like the plugin sets the update date of today while at least the actions of new and manual were not done at this date, but some time ago. It looks like it may be the date that the plugin did some check but not the actual install or update. * See screenshot here – [https://ibb.co/fvQkTpd](https://ibb.co/fvQkTpd) * ![](https://wordpress.org/ad29659b-792d-40c6-a060-6b10e2366930) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MailPoet - Newsletters, Email Marketing, and Automation] Sent only to 4 out of a list of 12 subscribers](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sent-only-to-4-out-of-a-list-of-12-subscribers/) * Thread Starter [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [2 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sent-only-to-4-out-of-a-list-of-12-subscribers/#post-17303189) * It seems to be fixed now in a more recent delivery, which sent to all subscribers of the list, so it may was a one time glitch.

Users expect that re-activation of a plugin will make the plugin active again with the same settings it had before the disable. * If you wish, you can add a “Reset” button, for manual use by the users. * Please consider fixing the current behavior. * Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Companion Auto Update] Re-activating the plugin changes settings](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/re-activating-the-plugin-changes-settings/) * Thread Starter [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [2 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/re-activating-the-plugin-changes-settings/#post-17259725) * Anyone here? * Now it happened again – I set the core updates schedule to every 1 minute some time ago, but now it is changed to 12 hours. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Broken Link Checker] Enhancement request – Try httpS for the same URL](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/request-enhancement-try-https-for-the-same-url/) * Thread Starter [eitanc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eitanc/) * (@eitanc) * [2 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/request-enhancement-try-https-for-the-same-url/#post-17231015) * Great, thank you!
