what file is it getting stuck on at 93%?

how do I find that information?

are any files not on drop box when you look?

The folder in Dropbox contains a ZIP file created on January 29th and a Log file containing the following:

This is because there is not enough time for the plugin to upload your zip. More information can be found here => https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/why-won%E2%80%99t-my-backup-start

I am working on a large zip resume feature.

A large zip resume feature is now my priority for the next release.

?? Even though my settings are still set to Daily, I am getting a successful backup every 3-5 days. Your large file solution will be welcome as I have already trimmed my files to the minimum.

Gday,

This has been implemented in 1.5.

Cheers,
Mikey

Hi Mikey, WPB2D is still not working. I have updated to your latest release and deleted all backup files in DB. Following is the latest log file:

I am running version 1.5.3 with both premium extensions

Hi Mikey,

I installed version 1.5.4 as soon as you released it. It seems the plugin is still not working. I have now revoked and then re-authorized the link to my DropBox account to see if that will make any difference. Here is my latest log from yesterday:

09:26:34: Approximately 47% complete.
09:26:23: Approximately 47% complete.
09:26:17: Approximately 47% complete.

Gday mate,

It could be something quirky with your server. Id be happy to take a look for you if you shoot some credentials to [email protected]

Cheers,
Mikey

I am having the same problem. It still at 99% and it has not finished updating in 2 days. I have your most recent update.

I’m having the same problem. Says 99% complete, but that’s it. Nothing exists in my backup folder. Installed most recent update yesterday 6/26/13. Jeff

It’s working now. Needed to increase memory in Dropbox-causing incomplete backups. That seemed to be my issue.
