HTTP Response Error 406

  • When I try to run any backup I get the following message appearing:

    “Job “Daily Database Backup” has started, but not responded for 10 seconds. Please check information.”

    On the information page I see the following–
    Not expected HTTP response:

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

  • Hello the HTTP Status-Code 406:
    406 Not Acceptable
    The requested resource is capable of generating only content not acceptable according to the Accept headers sent in the request.

    Did you have installed a security Plugin that prevends access to wp-cron.php or you hoster is not allo loopback connections.

    I have 2 other sites with the same web host and the plugin runs perfectly fine with the other 2.
    I have no security plugins installed with any of them.

    You can check yor .htaccess for rules that can have to to with wp-cron.php.
    Or trying to decativate Plugins to test if it depends on one spezific.

    I don’t see any rules in .htaccess which refer to wp-cron.php. In fact, the .htaccess file appears to be the default WordPress one.
    I tried de-activating plugins and that did not help.
    I downloaded the site to my local and it appears to work properly.
    I am running your plug-in on 2 other sites hosted by the same web host and it works fine there.

    What do you suggest?

    Thanks.

    In addition to my last post, it should be noted that the issue presents itself immediately whenever you choose to “Run Now”.
    Those jobs that are scheduled do appear to run but take a very long time to complete – the DB backup takes over 100 minutes for a DB sized at 2.5 MB.
    The full backup was cancelled after running for several hours.

    Thanks.

    Is that only the DB Backup start or the complete backup. Follow https://docs.backwpup.com/article/48-sending-in-log-files-for-the-support to send us a log file.

    Add this to wp-config.php

    define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true);
