• Backup started to fail recently. I see some warning timeouts(?) with the QUERY packets failing, but I can’t really see what the error is. What is my course of action? I did not cancel the backup as this is the weekly backup job, so “ERROR aborted by user” is misleading.

  • Hallo,

    taht look like that the job runns twice a the same time.

    What for a Server configuration did you have? Did you have a caching plugin installed?

    Very interesting.

    The backup job (backup everything: db, file etc.) is set to run weekly. There was no manual interaction just the e-mail that told me that the job failed.

    Caching plugin: yes W3TC. Also running behind Cloudflare, but that shouldn’t impact the internal process I reckon.

    I have seen this problem often with W3TC you can try to disable it and check again if it works.
