   at 441mb. How can I check to see if the backup is ok or corrupted>

 * Hey there –
 * Sorry for the delay in responding! Usually this error is harmless and comes up
   because the backup stalled at some point and then went looking for something 
   that was already done. If you have a way to compare the files in the backup against
   the files on your server you can do that comparison and see if anything is missing(
   I use Kaleidoscope for Mac). You can also just set up a test domain and use the
   files and database to see if everything is complete. That’s a great idea anyway,
   because it gives you a staging area to test new updates and such 😉
 * Let me know what you find out and I will wait to hear back from you.
 * Kat

 * The same thing happens for me, the backup never completes on the backend (it 
   keeps spinning)
