 * Hi
 * I am having a problem when packing up my website and keep getting the following
   error in the log.
    0539.858 (1) PHP event: code E_WARNING: Error while sending
   QUERY packet. PID=2964363 (line 2033, wp-includes/wp-db.php)
 * I am using hostinger as my host and they temporally upgraded me to a better hosting
   package and the plugin seemed to work. I was just wondering if there is anyway
   to make the backup work on the more basic package. My website is fairly small
   and basic and I only have about 12 plugins install so I don’t understand why 
   the more basic hostinger package doesn’t work? I was recently on the hostgators
   hatchling package and updraft worked fine. Looking at the tech specs below the
   hostgator one seems very similar to the basic hostonger package so i don’t understand
   why it isn’t working.
 * Basic Package Spec Single plan:
    10GB disk space, 100GB bandwidth, 256MB RAM,
   1 CPU core, 200000 inodes, 3GB MySQL, 15 MySQL user connections; PHP options:
   post_max_size, upload_max_filesize (MB) 64 php_memory_limit (MB) 128 max_execution_time,
   max_input_time (s) 60 IOPS 64 Entry Processes (EP)
 * Premium package.
    20GB disk space, unlimited bandwidth, 512MB RAM, 1 CPU core,
   400000 inodes, 3GB MySQL, 15 MySQL user connections; PHP options: post_max_size,
   upload_max_filesize (MB) 128 php_memory_limit (MB) 256 max_execution_time, max_input_time(
   s) 120 IOPS 128 Entry Processes (EP) 20
 * Hostgator
    safe mode = Off (cannot adjust) memory_limit = 256M (MAXIMUM) max_execution_time
   = 30 (MAXIMUM in seconds) max_input_time = 60 (MAXIMUM in seconds) post_max_size
   = 64M (MAXIMUM) upload_max_filesize = 64M (MAXIMUM) enable_dl = Off (cannot adjust)
 * Any help would be great.
 * Many thanks

 * Hi,
 * Thank you!
 * Can you set the value higher than 90? Try 300 or 900 and test if it helps resolve
   the problem.

 * Many thanks I will try that. It seems like the problem is now with the FTP upload
   this is when the size was set to 25mbs so will try 100 and see what happens.
   
   Here is the log from the last time. [log](https://pastebin.com/KTudwk4F)

   again.

 * Hi,
 * Apologies for the late reply.
 * It appears that the backup could just not complete as it runs out of resources.
   
   To test, try backing up without the uploads component or backup just one component
   and see if that successfully complete.
 * Best Wishes,
    Bryle
