    Hi Paul
    That’s a shame, because the functionality looked ideal.

    Thanks again for the speed at which you helped me to investigate this. It is very much appreciated.

    Regards

    Okay, I renamed and activated, resulting in the same issue. The menu on the left is displayed, but the centre section of the dashboard is blank.

    I then logged out and looked for an error.log file in wp-content, but there wasn’t one.

    I also edited wp-config.php again and set
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, true )

    …and then activated again. This time an error was displayed on the dashboard:

    Warning: exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /var/www/vhosts/rcssales.co.uk/httpdocs/blog/wp-content/plugins/backupwordpress/functions/interface.php on line 49

    I’m hoping this helps
    Regards

    Hi Paul
    I followed the advice and I have managed to deactivate the plugin by renaming the folder. I’m relieved to say that I can now login and see everything again! 🙂 I also displayed the plugin page and noted that it displayed this message at the top of the screen:

    “The plugin backupwordpress/backupwordpress.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist”

    I edited the wp-config.php file and changed WP_DEBUG to true

    I also added the following additional parameters in wp-config

    /**
    * Additional debugging information added by David Rose 12/08/2013
    *
    * Comment out them after testing has completed.
    */

    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false ); // Hides the errors.
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true ); // Logs errors to wp-content/error.log

    /**
    * End of additional parameters added by David Rose 12/08/2013
    *
    */

    After logging out, I then went to wp-content to look for an error.log file but there wasn’t one present. Having said that, apart from the missing plugin, no errors have yet occurred.

    Now, referring back to your reply, you suggest that I send a screenshot of the Backups page, but I think I need further information on what to do now.

    Should I rename the plugin folder from “Temp_backupwordpress” to “backupwordpress”?

    In order to then produce an errorlog file, should I then reactivate it?

    I’m happy to try and work through this and see if I can get backupwordpress working, because it looks like it will satisfy my requirements. However, I am cautious because I should really be dedicating my time to considering the content of my new blog…

    Anyway thanks again for your advice so far.

    Regards
    Dave

    Hi Paul
    Thanks for your quick reply. I’m out for the afternoon, so I’ll look at this later tonight. I must say I breathed a sigh of relief that there is a way to resolve this without reinstalling WordPress from scratch, because I haven’t done a backup yet (new installation) – hence the need for your plugin 🙂

    Thanks again
    Dave
