[Plugin: BackWPuP] Dropbox API error – not deleteing old copies

  • I have several sites running on dreamhost, one of which is suffering from a problem with BackWPup.

      I have a scheduled backup to Dropbox (DB only).
      This job is set to save 3 copies of the backup.
      I manually run this job to test.
      The job completes with one error (see below).
      The result is that a new backup is saved BUT the previous backups are not deleted.
      The same job also saves a file to the server (also 3 copies limit) this runs as expected.

    The portion of error log below shows that the problem seems to be that it cannot find the location of the existing backups to check if there are any to delete (even though it can find that location to save to).

    WordPress is up to date and I did a fresh install of the plugin.
