    Please help me understand something. Sometime ago I was getting a lot of my backup obs failing with the following message ERROR: Signal “SIGHUP” (Hangup detected on controlling terminal or death of controlling process) is sent to script!. Part of what you suggested was to comment out line 1496 in the backwpup/inc/class-job.php file. I did that and it helped tremendously!

    Several days ago the problem and message started appearing again. I went in to look at that file and it appears that it is a new copy of the file and most likely I therefore lost the change that I made. Can you verify of that is the case and what I can now do to handle this error message?

    Thanks!

    Jim

    Hi @jschmidtsbss
    Can you try to go to BackWPUp -> Settings -> Job tab -> Reduce server load and choose maximum and then try again, is that help?
    Thanks!

    That did not change things. Back to my original question, did the backwpup/inc/class-job.php file change in a recent update of the plugin? I ask because that line number is no longer relative to SIGHUP

    @jschmidtsbss
    ah actually SIGHUP signal is sent as a warning from the server, so comment out the SIGHUP line is just to hide away these warnings, that why it was not added to the main code yet, in case you want to hide it, you can just replace backwpup/inc/class-job.php with the modified one here:

    So am I to understand that commenting that out really does not benefit me at all? That was not the understanding I had some back when you first suggested commenting that line out.

    @jschmidtsbss
    YES, because of comment out that line will ignore the SIGHUP server warning so you will see no warnings and keep the job not thrown errors. And from my experiment, the SIGHUP issue can be ignored.

    But the job still fails! And I must say, waiting over a month for reply seems excessive

    sorry I was not at work at that time, about the issue, you said ” I did that and it helped tremendously!” but now the job still fails?
    can you post the latest log to pastebin.com and share me the link so I know why it still fails.
    Thanks!
