@geoffrey
Thanks again and sorry to be not specific enough.

Is it malicious? I did not mean to refer to those statcounter based findings but to using the javascript found on that buttons-for-website.com site. It says “<script src=”//sharebutton.net/plugin/sharebutton.vertical.js”></script>”

That worries me more. But as I already said before, I am not a professional, maybe it can do no harm at all.

@Geofrrey
Thanks for your reply.

“Why those visits from this website are problematic? I don’t understand.”
Well, as long as it is not malicious, me neither.

But isn’t it. Anyone?

I liked the place and movement of those so called social buttons, so I did put the script on my site. I.e. https://www.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu.
Not being a professional in this matter, could this script be malevolent?

No I don’t think so. I did not hear from the author anymore.

I am afraid that it is almost impossible to find a cause. This error message comes but often disappears when the backup is re-executed. So it seems that accidental external circumstances have influence. But what, when, why?

@khang Minh

Yeah, sorry, I should have mentioned that (replace x,y, etc.).

But I feel reassured, so thank you for this confirmation!

Nevertheless…. looking forward to a new feature for this fine plugin: an ‘exclude page setting’… ??

@arnee

Thanks, I can see what I did wrong.
I will try again but this time on the right forum.

Then the issue here can be closed.

Having called another page after https://www.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu/huurvoorwaarden/ and the going back using the “go back”-function (left arrow) of the browser is DOES show the right URL.

I am lost……………. ??

So the basic question seems to be: “using WordPress, is it possible to obtain the requested URL before a page is loaded”.

Again, the php is executed from within functions.php in theme Waever-child.

I am a few steps further.

The function is executed in functions.php in a Weaver-child. So it runs prior to loaded the requested page.

When I call i.e. https://www.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu/huurvoorwaarden/ the actual link found by the script is: link%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu%2Fverhuurbemiddeling%2F.

The string “verhuurbemiddeling” is odd, should it not have been “huurvoorwaarden”?
But “verhuurbemiddeling” is the name of the next page in WordPress. Is that db corrupt or something?
Or is it impossible to determine an actual url prior to loading that page.

Update: today upgraded to v. 1.2.3.

No change in behavior or additional options.

@sismaxis

Thanks for answering so quickly. But there is the reason for my confusion: there is NOT such a section as Excluded Items.

I guess that with v 1.2.2. I have the latest version.

Should it help when I delete the plugin and there-after re-install it? And doing so, do I lose then all my settings?

To those who experience this problem:

Daniel (author) and me maintain an emailchannel in order to solve this. The problem however is unruly. An automated backup of one of my other sites suddenly ran into the same error. A manual rerun a few hours later ran smoothly as ever. So it feels almost like chasing ghosts.

By-the-way: I had to restore to the former WP-release, I think it was 3.8.2.
I want to create (and see) a stable situation for a few days before I re-install WP 3.9.

The tar-archive executes fine. Also much faster. But it creates an archive of 72MB in stead of 32Mb as ZIP.

I have other sites that are more important to me (www,magoster.nl and https://www.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu). The site https://www.magoster.com also serves as sort of test-environment. I am prepared to give you access to that site if you need an environment where this error occurs. Should that help?

Hi Daniel

I had to reinstall my wp-site https://www.magoster.com. Before Backwpup ran well. But now I see the same error-msg (er-deleted…etc.). Max exec time is 30, this setting does not have any effect on the msg.
I see you are doing your best to find a solution, hope you’ll succeed!.

It seems that an zip-archive is created nevertheless. It seems complete. But can you confirm that this archive is reliable?

Thanks!

@Reiner30, @jumbo

I see only now that I did put my reaction in dutch. Sorry!

I followed the suggestions of Reiner and they seem to work. I can see now a sitemap and redelivered it to Google via Google Webmaster. Now I have to wait a few days.
If no result, Jumbo, I will act as you have suggested.

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,
