@rvargas
the problem because of we suddenly upgrade GuzzleHttp to a newer version that dropped support for 5.4 🙁
Sorry, but we currently try to fix it and going to release the new fixed version as soon as possible, really sorry for any problem happens to you 🙁
For a temporary fix,Please login to FTP and then delete the backwpup folder at your wp-content/plugins, after that, you can install the older version of BWP from the zip file in here: https://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/backwpup.3.4.5.zip
Or better, tell your hoster to upgrade PHP version to 5.6 or 7.0.
Sorry again for all the troubles you got 🙁
It works!,
Thank You so Much..
Hoping can fix the issue soon
Best Regards,
Hi @duongcuong96,
I’ve got a pretty similar problem: I installed the latest update of the Backwpup-Plugin and received the notice
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘, expecting ‘)’ in /home/de001rz4/www/home/wp-content/plugins/backwpup/vendor/guzzlehttp/promises/src/functions.php on line 45
and now my website is vanished – all there is left when I want to open my website or any of its sites is this notice above. How can I fix this? Or is it going to work the moment you’ve fixed and released your new version? When will that be?
Thanx S

For a temporary fix, Please install a plugin called WP Rollback(https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-rollback/), after that, go to plugin list -> find BackWPUp and press Roll back to the 3.4.5 version
Or better, tell your hoster to upgrade PHP version to 5.6 or 7.0.
Sorry again for all the troubles you got 🙁

As I can’t open my website, not as admin either, I can’t install any plugin suggested by you, that’s the problem.
Hope you’ll fix this soon, it’s no good running a shop without a working website.
Best, S
@designqvist
just contact your hoster and tell them to upgrade your PHP version to 5.6 or 7.0 will fix the problem. thank you!
Hi @duongcuong96
so if I upgrade
php
phtml
php3
php4
php5
to “5.6 latest GnuTLS” the problem will be solved? Or is it only necessary to change the .php setting and leave the other ph… as they are (“5.3.latest GnuTLS”)?
Thanx S
Hi again @duongcuong96,
I have tried out all of the suggested PHP-versions offered by my webhost (5.6 and 7.0, both as GnuTLS and OpenSSL version), with more than one hour between each try: So far no change, the problem is still there.
Any further hints or ideas how I could solve the problem?
Best, S

I found out that I’d have to establish an FTP connection which I did. Luckily I found a very helpful tutorial: https://wpshout.com/quick-guides/how-to-use-ftp-to-deactivate-a-plugin-thats-breaking-your-wordpress-site/
I followed the instructions, renamed the backwpup file (in wp-content) and now my website is back again.
This will be enough for today, tomorrow I’ll have to re-install an older version of your backwpup plugin.
Best, S
@designqvist
in the next few hours, the 3.5.1 will be released with all issues got fixed. Please update as soon as you can.
Thank you!
Hi @duongcuong96
before I update to 3.4.5 I absolutely want to make a backup with the now via rollback again working older version. The backup of the uploads seemed to work well, not so the backup of the Basic-Structure (WordPress, Plugins, database, no uploads) – I always receive this notice:
ERROR: mysqlnd cannot connect to MySQL 4.1+ using the old insecure authentication. Please use an administration tool to reset your password with the command SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD(‘your_existing_password’). This will store a new, and more secure, hash value in mysql.user. If this user is used in other scripts executed by PHP 5.2 or earlier you might need to remove the old-passwords flag from your my.cnf file
How can I fix that? Where and how do I change which password? Have no clue at all…
Thanx S
