[Plugin: wp Time Machine] Backup files are not being sent to Dropbox

Same here

Same here on Amazon S3. It creates bucket, but when you generate the files, they aren’t in it!

Same problem here.

I don’t get it. It says it’s done the archive but nothing really shows up in the dropbox..Any help?

Same problem!

I created a folder in Dropbox and specified it, I’m seeing the same issue as the others, ie. no files are uploaded.

same here

I am experiencing the same problem, but only on a WordPress install hosted at Dreamhost. I use wp Time Machine on two other WordPress sites that are hosted at Bluehost without any issues whatsoever. I have tried both Dropbox and FTP uploads without success. The only difference I can tell from the logs is a slightly older version of curl installed at Dreamhost.

Here’s a snippet of my last log file:

WP TimeMachine was working great with WordPress until a couple of weeks ago. Now it’s not backing up even though it says it is.

I noticed that no one was getting any responses so I went back and tried something. I deactivated most of my plugins and tried again. TimeMachine worked this time and it did backup my site.

Thanks for the idea.

However, I deactivated all of my plugins except wp Time Machine and the back up still seems to choke on the add: wp-content/wptouch-data call. I guess the next thing to try is to remove that directory and see if it works. The odd thing is that the wp-content/wptouch-data directory and its subdirectories are completely empty.

/wp-content/ directory must be chmod 777

I changed the permissions on the /wp-content/ directory, but it didn’t make any difference. The log still indicates that backup stops at the /wp-content/wptouch-data/ directory.

I’m fairly convinced that permissions are not the problem … the /wp-content/ directories on my two installs that are working with wp Time Machine have permissions set to 755.

I have installed wp Super Cache after wp Time Machine, appeared a conflict between plugins. and now I must change the permissions each time when I need to backup. sad. hope, you’ll find the solution
