Constantly backing up database

  • Hi, up until now this plugin has worked reliably for me on several websites. However this morning on one of them it started to constantly back-up the database. I have set it up so it emails me the database backup. It is scheduled to backup at 10:35 am everyday, but since that time this morning it has done a backup almost every minute. I updated all the plugins and WordPress as well but that hasn’t solved the issue.

    Check if your options are set correctly and you did not choose the minute dropdown.

    If the settings is correct, then my guess is your WordPress cron might be corrupted or some plugin you are using are messing with the cron. You can use wp-crontrol plugin to check.

    Thanks Lester for your quick answer. The set up was correct, a backup every day. I installed the wp-crontrol plugin that you suggested and saw nothing out of the ordinary there. The backups have stopped about a couple of hours ago, I’ll keep monitoring the situation and let you know if anything comes up.
