    Hi

    Just a heads-up for a problem for which I have found a solution. The problem applies to all the popular backup plugins:

    I recently upgraded my VPS to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. All my sites using UpdraftPlus would hang while backing up.

    I discovered that a function (gzopen) used by updraft is no longer available as standard, but gzopen64 does the same job!

    A simple workaround for functions.php or wp-config.php:

    if (!function_exists('gzopen')) {
    function gzopen($filename , $mode, $use_include_path = 0 )
          { return gzopen64($filename, $mode, $use_include_path);
    }
}

    Now all my sites work correctly.
