Solution :
If you get “creating zip archive” and it is stuck then
1) Cancel the process
2) click on run now
It should run and your database should backup. I was facing the same problem but now its alright.
Wow,
thanks Alchymyth, for the link.
Bit overwhelmed, too much I don’t understand.
Ill try to read and re-read, if you could just glance at my code perhaps?
It would be helpful. My page is not a “static page” in the settings under reading.
