Backup Keeps Failing

    Looking for advice with using Updraft

    I’ve used this for many years for other sites, but can’t get it to work with my site I just purchased. It is around 300GB in size.

    Below is the last bit of the log. It starts ok, then fails.

    Hi,

    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 100Mb, save your settings and run a new process.

    Kind Regards,
    Bryle

    No luck, I even tried to go to 50Mb, but the same happens.

    What else could I try? ??

    Thanks for the advice
