file name too long

ive asked backupbuddy if their plugin has this limitation and they say no, is there something about backwpup that makes long file names not work?

Hello, that ist a tar specific problem. Zip supports longer filenames. BAckupbuddy only supports zip…..

https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_section/Formats.html see ustar. The other formates are not implemented because compatibility.

ok, testing with zip only, if that is the solution that will be fine thank you
