    Attempting to use the backup functionality.

    The schedule date being presented to me is:

    Next scheduled backup is at December 31, 1969 08:00 pm

    The on demand backup also fails.

    The message displayed when attempting the on demand backup shows that it uses WP date and time settings. I checked my setting in the wp-admin interface and everything is accurate, based on my timezone. Should I be looking somewhere else for these date\time settings?

    *note that I’m hosting my WP site with DreamHost

    No I did not.

    I have 2 domains:

    mattsuda.com and mattsuda.net

    mattsuda.com is the domain I am using.

    I use mattsuda.net for something else. (mainly a redirect)

    *guuuuh* I swear I knew that.

    Okay, it’s looking like it’s the home and site URL definitions in your wp-config. Now when I sort out WHY… *sigh* tis totally illogical, and I have to be careful how I change it, since where it’s working for everyone else to separate your uploads into folders (i.e. if it worked, you’d have the items in Bucketname/mattsuda.com/backup-timeanddate.zip ) so you could have multiple sites backed up into the bucket.

    Off topic:

    DreamHost moved my website to a new server and it loads twice as fast!
    (of course with my optimizations already in place)

    There is no more 1-2 second hang after typing in the URL.

    Impressively faster with the new servers!

    Tell everyone at DreamHost I said “thanks” =)

    Tried version 3.1 with no luck ??

    Any luck finding the problem?

    Ignore my last post… You’re the home/site URL error, not the size one.

    Bleah. No. This was purely to fix the large file upload woes. Which IIRC you’re not having that problem, you’re just the odd home/site URL barfing.

    Alright, no problem. I can wait.

    Hopefully there is something you can do to extend my free 2 month trial once it’s fixed since I have not been able to use it. ??

    Well, I can use it, but not the main purpose I want it for.

    Thanks for trying your best! =)

    I have to admit, large files was a more pressing fix for me, since more people were having it. The home/site URL shouldn’t matter at all, which is why it’s confounding me. I even went and changed the code to detect the site name from the URL and not WP, and you’re -still- seeing this, which makes me wonder if you have something else hinky in your setup that I’m just not seeing ??

    This is so weird… hmmm…

    Hmmm… maybe DreamObjects isn’t right for me. My website is not that big though.

    I just don’t understand why the plugin works for everyone else except for me.

    I currently do manual backups and it does get annoying, but if I can’t find a solution that works I might just have to do them manually.

    Thanks for your efforts and trying to fix the plugin.

    I just don’t understand why my website doesn’t work with the plugin and my free trial is almost over.

    I don’t see why I should keep my subscription if the plugin does not work for me.

    No hard feelings. =)

    For what it’s worth, while I do work for DreamHost, I didn’t build this for work initially. I just did it since I thought it would be helpful.

    Your’s is not the size issue. There’s something special about how you’ve set your home and site URLs up that cause it to put the backup in a wrong place, and I can’t reproduce it anywhere else. I totally understand your annoyance, though. It’s frustrating to me too ??

    If the manual command line backup works, which … I thought it did, and just put it in the wrong folder, you could use a real cron job to automate that.

    I’ve dug through files and I cannot find any weird URL setups.

    I don’t want to re-do everything or mess anything up.

    Since I don’t change code very often, I will continue with manual backups.

    Thanks for all of your efforts.

    I’m glad you were able to fix some of the issues other people were having in the process. =)

    Didn’t you have your home and site URLs defined in your WP-config.pho?

    Matt

    (@mattjsrules)

    Yes, they were defined.
