again (Not finished) backup

Hi Renate,

The log shows “6182.609 (4) Dropbox: exception (Dropbox_BadRequestException) occurred whilst getting account info: Error in call to API function “users/get_space_usage”: request body: expected null, got value”

Can you please try to re-authenticate to your Dropbox account from UpdraftPlus > Settings, save the settings and re-run the backup process.

Thanks,

hi,
I did another authorization and this went well.
Success: you have authenticated your Dropbox account.
Your Dropbox account name: Apo ton lofo1

then did the backup again and again received an error.

can you help me on my way to solve this because I really don’t know how to do this.
there is a document about how the backup procedure works and what to look out for if it goes wrong.
do the files remain on the server for all backups?

Hi,

Please can you update the plugin to latest version 1.16.16?
Then, could you try to reduce the backup archive split size. This will split the backup into smaller, more manageable files.

To do this, open the ‘expert settings’ section of the UpdraftPlus Settings tab, and find the ‘split backups every’ option. Set this to 25Mb, save your settings and run a new process.

Kind Regards,
Bryle

Hi, I did the steps as described by Bryle but not a good result.

still get the notice:
0159.366 (0) There were errors in the uploads, so the ‘resume’ event is remaining scheduled
0159.369 (0) Rescheduling resumption 1: moving to 100 seconds from now (1565451993)
0159.371 (0) The backup has not finished; a resumption is scheduled

I also see this now in the shedule screen:

Web server disk space in use by UpdraftPlus: 646.7 MB refresh

Before the setting change to 25 mb it was around 316, mb.
Why it is increased

Hi,

Apologies for the late reply.

It still shows that the backup process is timed out or killed off. This is usually due to server resources reaching its limits.

Please ask your hosts/server admin to investigate their PHP error logs. These logs should contain more information on the exact issue that is causing the backup process to halt.

We also recommend you to update to PHP 7. See FAQ: https://updraftplus.com/php-version-matter/. Hope it helps.

Bryle

Hi Bryle,
I have made free space on my server but still not yet a good backup.

Question: Can I delete the backups in updraftplus but not from the external storage?
since I store 6 version I can still delete the 4 former version on the server but not on the external storage.
when I do rescan remote storage with the button, I still get my backups back in the list!

here the last log file

please let me know if I delete the storage space on the server.
i have to make a backup frist before i can test my site form php 7.

with kind regards
Renate

Hi,
I cleaned my site with WP-Optimize – Clean, Compress, Cache
and I have been given room to make the backup.
yeaaaaah see the log file

question:
I had to set the setting to 25 mb but I now get 16 zip files on the external storage. can I set the setting back to 400 mb?
this is what i have to do :
To do this, open the ‘expert settings’ section of the UpdraftPlus Settings tab, and find the ‘split backups every’ option. Set this to 25Mb, save your settings and run a new process.
