    Hello,

    I have been trying to create a backup for my site for about a month now, but every time I try it is not successful to backup the database. I do not recieve an error message, it just always stops at the same place every time and never finishes (I’ve left it running for a very long time several time). The backup always gets stuck when trying to create a backup of the wp posts database table (in my case called “wp_s_k_a_se_posts”). What can I do here to bypass this error?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    To help us work out the cause of your problem, can you please send us a copy of the full backup log?
    This can be found in the UpdraftPlus Existing Backups tab.The contents will be too long to post here directly, but you can use an online service such as Dropbox or Pastebin, and post the link here.

    Kind Regards,

    Bryle

    Can you install the free plugin WPCrontrol and take a screenshot of your Cron Events?

    Hi, thanks for getting back to me. I am sending a screenshot of the Cron events, although it is in Swedish and I found no way to translate it to English:

    When I open the Cron events, I am also getting these two errors (as you can see at the top of the image):

    “One or more cron events have missed their schedule”

    “Could not initiate a call to the WP-Cron system on your site. This means that WP-Cron actions on your site may not work. The error message was: Unexpected HTTP response code: 403”

    Thanks for your help.

    Can you try adding the following to your wp-config.php

    define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true);

    This should activate the alternate cron

    Hello, thanks for the advice.

    Implementing the define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true); did trigger some error (HTTP 500) which primarily stopped wp-admin from working. Also, there is no where it says that cron job has been disabled, so I believe that this configuration is not specific and hence would achieve anything.

    Is there anything else I can try?
