== ERROR == Too many failures ( 501 / 500 ), leaving.. !

  • Hi, new owner of a pCloud plan I tried a backup onto my cloud space, here’s what the debug display shows:

    And there is a ‘archive_1669907625.zip.W0qVF4’ file in wp-content/plugins/pcloud-wp-backup/tmp which I guess is the failed zip file?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi, so after two weeks without a single reply, I’m afraid I have to consider this plugin just does not work, and that’s a pity! ??

    Last try. Looking down into the PHP code, I found in class-wp2pcloudfilebackup.php the following lines (341-349):

                    if ( $num_files > 500000 ) {
                        WP2pCloudFuncs::set_storred_val( PCLOUD_MAX_NUM_FAILURES_NAME, 15000 );
                } elseif ( $num_files > 100000 ) {
                        WP2pCloudFuncs::set_storred_val( PCLOUD_MAX_NUM_FAILURES_NAME, 6000 );
                } elseif ( $num_files > 40000 ) {
                        WP2pCloudFuncs::set_storred_val( PCLOUD_MAX_NUM_FAILURES_NAME, 2000 );
                } elseif ( $num_files > 10000 ) {
                        WP2pCloudFuncs::set_storred_val( PCLOUD_MAX_NUM_FAILURES_NAME, 500 );
                }

    In a first try, I replaced 500 with 2000 for the same result, i.e. 

    == ERROR == Too many failures ( 2001 / 2000 ), leaving.. !

    OK then I tried 5000, same song! And then, for a last try: 15 000.

    I’m wondering if it’s not the use of zip the problem, instead of tar gz or bz2 for instance… I’m not a dev, I can’t say.

    But without anyone here participating to the topic, I think I’ll forget it and put my handkerchief on it. ??

    I am having the same issue. My webhost says the plugin is timing out. I have extended execution time in phpini but it still hangs. My smallest website of 56MB uploads to pcloud just fine. Anything larger, no good. I have 20 websites and only 2 are successful in going to pcloud as they are small.

    I’m afraid there’s no one at pCloud to maintain the plugin, but as a last chance, I just opened a ticket on github. Let’s see if pCloud is able to give an answer, otherwise I reckon this plugin should not be proposed to WP admins…

    And for information, I asked the BackWPup team to put pCloud in their roadmap. Maybe if we’re enough to ask them, they’ll up the feature in the todo list. At least, their plugin works for other backup destinations.
