 * Hi there, we get a fatal error (see below) when activating BackWPup and Amazon
   Polly plugins at the same time
 * See the error below, any hints? (we can also provide credentials to our test 
   website, if this can help you solve the problem)
 * Error:
 * Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to Aws\Common\Client\AbstractClient::
   __construct() must be an instance of Aws\Common\Credentials\CredentialsInterface,
   array given, called in /home/websitename/public_html/wp-content/plugins/amazon-
   polly/vendor/aws/Aws/Sdk.php on line 334 and defined in /home/websitename/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/backwpup/vendor/aws/aws-sdk-php/src/Aws/Common/Client/AbstractClient.
   php on line 73

    I forwarded your issue 
   to our developers, the problem because of vendor conflict, for now, please temproary
   disable Amazon Polly in order to get BackWPUp workings 🙂 Hope that helps you

 * Hi there, when do you think you can solve this issue?
 * Note that I discussed with Amazon Polly developers, and this is what they claim:
 * This one is a bit tricky, the simple reason for this problem is that Polly plugin
   uses latest version of the AWS SDK, meanwhile the other plugin which you mentioned
   uses much older SDK
 * Do you plan to update the SDK for BackWPup any soon?
 * Cheers
 * Ivo

 * Any word on this, I have started receiving the same error. My difference is I
   am only using BackWPup Version 3.6.0, with a plugin I am developing.

 * It seems there is no much interested on solving this, as 3 months have passed.
 * At the moment I keep BackWPup non active and I only active it for 5 minutes per
   week to make a backup but it’s not longterm sustainable as I deal with many websites
   and it’s too much work.
 * So, unless this get solved, I’ll be forced to switch backup plugin. It’s a shame
   because BackWPup is a great backup plugin, if it was not for AWS bug
