 * Server self connect Not expected HTTP response:Status-Code: 403
 * How to solve this problem?
    What is the problem of security. I can not contact
   the support of the host, because I own the server. Some sites on this server 
   work with your plugin correctly. Please help me understand what I need to fix
   in security.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fserver-self-connect-not-expected-http-responsestatus-code-403%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

   directory ), and **BEFORE** the line:
    **/\* That’s all, stop editing! Happy 
   blogging. \*/ ** add this line: `define('ALTERNATE_WP_CRON' , true );` Hope that
   helps!

    since we haven’t
   heard back from you, I’m going to mark it as resolved. If you’re still having
   problems, feel free to let us know ;),
 * Btw, If you find BackWPUp is useful for you, we would really appreciate if you
   leave a positive review and rating.
    This would encourage us to develop new free
   features and provide free support 😀 [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/reviews/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/reviews/)
