• I need help and advice on best course of action for BackUpWordPress issues I am experiencing. I’ve taken on the task to help out a local charitable organization with their website but I am new to WordPress. One of the primary tasks is to upgrade the site to version WordPress 5.2 but the current backups are failing and before I upgrade I want to make sure I have a proper restorable backup. I also want to change the backup add-in to UpdraftPlus as soon as I am confident I have a good backup.

    Here are the messages displayed on the Backup screen:

    Zip: zip warning: No such file or directory
    zip warning: No such file or directory

    Mysqldump: Warning: Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.
    mysqldump: Got errno 122 on write

    Daily backup:
    ——————-
    Backup my database (18 MB) daily at 11:00 pm, store the last 3 backups in /wp-content/backupwordpress-e6d7e7511a-backups.

    Any advice and/or recommendations are highly appreciated.
    Thanks
