Support for custom WP_CONTENT_DIR directory?

It should have… Huh. I’ll go back through my logic. I think I have an idea why that happened.

Awesome, thanks! If you need any additional information let me know.

Ah, I know what’s wrong.

I’ll work on it this week/end and see if I can come up with a better fix. What’s happening is WP is scanning it’s own folders, and not looking outside. I may change how I backup to make this more sensible, but I was trying to be clever to make sure I got the .htaccess and wp-config.php … So I’m going to change some logic ??

Okay, if you’re willing to test, the 3.3 beta is here: https://github.com/Ipstenu/dreamobjects/tree/REL_3.3

This only backs up wp-content. The original way I did it was to get .htaccess and wp-config.php as well, but that was why your content didn’t back up. Since wp-config and .htaccess are stupid easy to rebuild, I’m moving them off the table for now… Gotta figure out how to detect where they are, since you can move wp-config around :/

Just tested on one of my sites, and it appears to have worked for the content directory. I still have a zero KB SQL export though. Could be an unrelated issue?

That’s too bad about the wp-config.php and .htaccess.

Yeah, it’s hard to find files that may not be where we think they are.

I THINK I’ll have to do a ‘Check the main folder, if not, check one up’ for both and that should do it. Not elegant, though.

Zero byte SQL is … How big is your SQL DB?

I believe the DB is about 14.5MB.

OK, so I tried it on another site with a smaller DB and it worked.

Must be the DB size, I checked your FAQ, do you think changing the PHP fileupload size will help with that? Or increasing WP_MEMORY_LIMIT?

Memory limit would be my first guess. File Upload isn’t the problem, since it can upload 500 megs ??

It’s probably timeouts, really, which are crazy pants to debug since PHP is timing out running a command. I think I can bump that, since I already do it for the actual file upload part.

Made a tweak to the beta to increase timeouts for SQL uploads.

Still zero for me. I’ve already taken up too much of your time. It’s working for my other, smaller sites. When I get some actual free time (if) I’ll try to debug it and see what’s happening. Thanks for your help.

I’m going to grab a massive DB and see if I can duplicate it. Just for a laugh, though, are you on shared or a VPS?

Shared. ??

Right. Somewhat confirmed. Large DB plus shared hosted equals PHP memory running out.
