 * I have installed backwpup on 11 websites and the scheduled backups are working
   fine on all of them backing up to RackSpace or using FTP but when I click on 
   Jobs – Run Now, I get the following error message:
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare backwpup_menu_entry() (previously declared in /[
   path]/wp-content/plugins/backwpup/app/functions.php:8) in /[path]/wp-content/
   plugins/backwpup/app/functions.php on line 10
 * Should I be concerned?

 * If you have Thesis openhook Plugin installt make the folling to fix it.
 * Change the includes in the thesis-openhook.php from:
 * include(‘functions.php’);
    include(‘actions.php’);
 * to:
 * include(dirname(__FILE__).’/functions.php’);
    include(dirname(__FILE__).’/actions.
   php’);
 * than BackWPup will work again.
    I have send a mail to the autor.
