[Plugin: BackWPup] No email is sent when archive is too big to be sent

  • Great plugin – so thanks to its creators.

    One small issue so far through – namely that no email is sent ( or at least received) when archive is too big to be sent.

    The email adddress I am using is the same as that used in another Job that just backs up the database and it works there – so I know it’s a good address.

    The tick box (only send on error) doesn;t seem to make any difference in this case.

    Has anyone else seen this? Is there a workaround yet?

    Regards,

    James

    Ok, whilst I haven’t been able to prove why emails are not sent I beleive it may be because in the __destruct() method, the sending of the log file is done using wp_send and not the phpmailer method as used in destination_mail(). So I have patched my version of backwpup_dojob.php as shown below. This now works for me and copies me with a second email containing a hyperlink to the log file. There is one string constant for the path to the log file. The existing fn for log file directory ( $this->logdir.$this->logfile ) does not correctly report the path on my windows-based host but your mileage may vary.

    Hopefully this may be of assistance to others.

    If anyone sees any issues with this please comment accordingly.

    The code above was truncated so here is the code from the begining of private function destination_dir()
    This is where the changes are…

    OK not come across pastebin before. If my attempt at embedding below doesn’t work then the pastebin reference is daDEfN2
