Thanks for your reply.
Sorry, but I will not upload a log file containing server internals and post the link to it on a public forum. If you have some private way to provide the log file, I’m happy to do so.
Hi Support,
I can confirm the exclude paths are not working since a while now. Also, the exclusion of Backup Guard’s own target directory is not working which results in never ending backup jobs or very large backup files.
The log file shows:
2020-12-20 11:42:00: Start backup file: /wp-content/uploads/backup-guard/sg_backup_opt(full)_20201220114106/sg_backup_opt(full)_20201220114106.sgbp
So Backup Guard is backing up its own currently written backup file which is not right.
Also adding “wp-content/uploads/backup-guard” to the exclude paths doesn’t change this behaviour, which indicates that the exclude path mechanism is also not working.
Thanks for looking into this.
