BMI-6lIgBVfT-66232 backup failed | WordPress.org

Hello @caddyman ,

I guess you saw the error log, and acted accordingly. I will explain it for other users for similar issue:

The critical message in the log states:

[ERROR] [2023-06-29 17:25:51] Error message: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded
[ERROR] [2023-06-29 17:25:51] Probably we could not increase the execution time, please edit your php.ini manually

So please increase the max execution time. Also,

Please open first section of the plugin named: “What will be backed up?”
Find subsection named: “Exclude by folder / file name (case-sensitive)”
Here add these three rules, like on image: https://prnt.sc/9oftADPd_Z7e

Once you do that, please follow these steps:

1. Go to “Other options” section
2. Change backup method: https://prnt.sc/1s1ofpa
3. Disable PHP CLI checking:
4. Save “Other options” section
5. Force stop both processes:

When you do that, try to run your backup once again.

Kind regards
