I bought Pro hoping to have an easy backup. Had fits trying to configure ftp server and didn’t feel very comfortable with how reliable it would be with my limited skills. Didn’t really want to do Dropbox. Planned on just doing a local file and then downloading it to my computer, cd, and external…so I only had the local checked.
I had the same problem as others in your support forum….only 99% backup and it stopped. I had free version first and I did deactivate and deleted it, but I forgot to clear my cache and thought that might be the problem. Deactivated and deleted the Pro Zip, cleared cache, and added Pro again. Didn’t help!
Here’s what I found in the log:
[2015-06-10 20:43:48] [START Backing up]

Here’s what I found in the cPanel under content/backup
sns__2015.06.10__20_43_0ZDAZMHM.zip
empty
Archive: sns__2015.06.10__20_43_0ZDAZMHM.zip

a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.

Please help!
