Error – Out of Memory

  • Backup was working great when using 1.7.8 on WP version 3.1.4 and did not have this backup problem. When updating to the latest BackWPup plugin and WP 3.2.1 I am having the following errors when backing up large files to Dropbox only. Works fine when backing up to the server.

  • Hello,

    I am also getting this error trying to backup all files to Dropbox. The backup file DOES arrive at Dropbox, however an error is still present.

    I do not have any errors backing up to the server when I run a non-Dropbox backup.

    Any help/a solution would be greatly appreciated. The backup file size was around 125mb. Here’s the log:

    As you can see it appears to be a memory issue, however I can tell you it would definitely not require more than 256mb of memory just to transfer a file to Dropbox…

    About 5 minutes later I then get an email error once the file has arrived within Dropbox.

    Any ideas?

    Okay, I just tried it again and this time selected Tar Gzip instead of just ZIP and did not get the error.
