Creating staging site failed

Hello @mpeg5 ,

The first step to create a staging site is to create a backup of it, where the plugin run into issue.

Your backup failed during database export, mostly due to its giant size.

In the first place, I’d recommend you perform a full cleanup and optimize all your tables.
You can do that easily with the help of a free and simple plugin.
Check it out: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/advanced-database-cleaner
– Cleanup won’t remove anything that is in use, so, no worries.

Then, follow these steps carefully:
1. Download and install the “Advanced DB Cleanup” plugin
2. Do a full Cleanup and optimize all tables using the Advanced DB Cleanup plugin
3. After that you can already remove the mentioned cleanup plugin if you wish
4. Go to Backup & Migration plugin settings
5. Open the “Other options” section
6. Disable PHP CLI checking: https://prnt.sc/1sljr31
7. Change backup method: https://prnt.sc/1s1ofpa
8. Enable database batch export: https://prnt.sc/bn7MjTUxHuEe
9. Disable space checking: https://prnt.sc/PAlbYsz3RszJ
10. Save the “Other options” section
11. Force to end both processes (troubleshooting): https://prnt.sc/1trv1tm

After that you can create a new site backup. Once the backup file is successfully created, you can proceed to create a Staging site, and select that backup file as the source.

Let me know if that resolves your issue 🙂
Thank you!
