I just had something similar happen when my hosting had to move me from one server to another. My issue was caused by permissions not set correctly on that /tmp directory on my new server.
Maybe this’ll help someone (I find answers in the forums all the time, but never really get to give back).
I hope it helps!
Hi,
I am facing the same problem. However, the problem is present on some installations but not others on the same server. I had a look at my /tmp directory permissions – but couldn’t see any differences. I did notice that the plugin now uses two temp directories instead of the earlier 1 (in previous versions before the last couple of updates).
Could you be a little more specific about what you did to fix the permissions?
Thanks
Hello,
did you have test Version 3.0.7?
There i have set the BackWPup temp dir for sessions temp dir if the default issend writeable.
Hello,
Yes, I have version 3.0.7.
As a follow up, on further investigation I found that once I activated the plugin, and visited the Settings -> Information section, the plugin resumed working without a problem and the warning messages disappeared. I was checking if Safe mode was on – as one of the support threads suggested as much – but found that was not the case.
Not sure why this resolved the problem – but I could replicate it on a couple of sites. Hope this helps you investigate and resolve it.
Thanks
Hello again,
Just my followup info… I don’t believe my issue was specific to this plugin, but is what brought the issue to the surface — unless using that /tmp is a flaw.
As you see it the original poster’s Warning msgs above, /tmp is at the same level as his /public_html, I had a similar situation. We don’t have access ourselves above our ‘root’ (the /html dir) so I could not check permissions myself, I was at the mercy of the hosting service.
After 45mins on the phone with the first level support, I was finally able to get them to bump up a level in the service chain and they discovered that permissions were not set properly.
Hope it helps.
