Warning when backing up

[Natalie LinkeParticipant]

Hello, when I want to backup my site I get the following warning.

Warning: A very large file was found: ai1wm-backups/sandrakhalil.de-20211008-075410-k0c2ui.wpress (size: 3389.9 Mb)

and the backup must be canceled.

Can anyone tell me what happened there and what I can do?

Thank you very much & best regards
Natalie

Hi Natalie,

Please exclude the backup files from All in One WP Migration.
Check this guide – https://updraftplus.com/faqs/how-can-i-exclude-particular-filesdirectories-from-the-backup/

Thanks

Hi Bryle,

thank you very much for your reply. I have made a backup after migrating the site. Only since last week it does not allow to create backups.

I am not sure if we have understood each other correctly. I don’t want to migrate anything, I just want to create a backup.

Can you please describe me what exactly I should do.

Thank you very much & best regards
Natalie

Hi Natalie,

Were you able to exclude the large file from the backup?
If yes, but still having a backup issue, please can you send us a copy of the backup log?
This can be found in the UpdraftPlus Existing Backups tab.
The contents will be too long to post here directly, but you can use an online service such as Dropbox or Pastebin, and post the link here.

Regards,
Bryle
