    Deleting files over FTP does not work. Backups are created just fine, but when trying to delete them in the admin panel I get a page timeout and the following error in the debug log:

    [21-May-2018 06:38:05 UTC] PHP Warning:  ftp_login(): Login incorrect. in /.../wp-content/plugins/backwpup/inc/class-destination-ftp-connect.php on line 210
[21-May-2018 06:38:11 UTC] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught BackWPup_Destination_Connect_Exception: Something went wrong during FTP connection. Seems not possible to connect to the service. in /.../wp-content/plugins/backwpup/inc/class-destination-ftp-connect.php:159

#6 {main}
  in /.../wp-content/plugins/backwpup/inc/class-destination-ftp-connect.php on line 159

    The login is definitely correct since they are successfully uploaded every night.

    I’m using the latest version of BackWPUp (free version) and WordPress.

    Please note that I am using a non-standard FTP port, I think it may be related to this. On the target host, there is another FTP server running on the standard port 21 with different credentials, I suspect the plugin is trying to connect using the default port to the wrong FTP server.

    hmm, interesting, I will try to reproduce the error.
    Thank for reporting ??

    Same problem here! Files backuped on FTP weren’t deleted anymore. But I use no special port.

    In my logfile there is found the following entry:

    PHP Warning: ftp_login(): Login incorrect in /var/www/vhosts/…/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/backwpup/inc/class-destination-ftp-connect.php on line 210

    Notice: The backup file is saved there. It seems that only the deleting function occurs this error.

    The new version already fixed this issue, please update as soon as possible!
    Thank you!
    Btw, If you find BackWPUp is useful for you, we would really appreciate if you leave a positive review and rating.
    This would encourage us to develop new free features and provide free support ??
