    max_execution_time: 600

    Keeps stalling when creating tar.gz file

    Here is my working log:

    I’ve tried splitting up my backup jobs to the following

    WordPress Database
    WordPress Install
    WordPress Plugins
    WordPress Content
    WordPress Uploads
    WordPress Manual Uploads

    thinking it would help with the time it takes to generate the tar.gz file, but that hasn’t helped. I keep getting WARNING: Job restarts due to inactivity for more than 5 minutes.

    Update:

    I’ve set the max execution script time within the BackWpup settings to 30 seconds and set the reduce server load to Medium.

    I also changed the compression from tar.gz to simply tar

    Now its at least fully generating the tar file, and connecting to Amazon S3, but its not actually uploading the file. Its stuck at 1% as seen here – https://note.io/SPqLb4

    I know my connection to Amazon is working as my daily database only backups are pushing out just fine and for what its worth, this website is hosted on a shared plan with Dreamhost.

    Thoughts?
