Well, unfortunately, I can’t edit it after an hour. However to answer your question.
I assume you mean the BackWPUp version 3.4.4. Or do you mean the MYSQL version? It’s 10.2.12-MariaDB.

Scott

Sorry How to I check and tell you the DB version? This is the log with the error….

I am getting the exact same error with all database backups. I’ve tried the same suggestion as above and the error continues. Is there any update on this error?

Well never mind I just checked and now it’s ok….I swear it wasn’t twenty minutes ago….any clue what happened?

Scott

How did you resolve it Jay?
I’m still having the problem.
Scott

Just as an FYI I added the second set of code to the functions.php and it worked like a charm in the lifestyle theme.
Thanks so much. (when or if you add a permanent fix to the plugin, will I need to remove that code from functions.php? Obviously if the theme files are ever updated I’ll have to add the code back as well so I saved it.)
Scott

Thanks I’ll give it a shot….Have a great weekend, and Thanksgiving if you celebrate it.

Scott

Thanks it is working well now.
