Hi,

This new super LAZY plugins (beta2). It was he who convinced me to make the step to the PRO version.

However I have a problem. There are several backups that start at the same time ... offset by a few hours to see minutes. I do not know what event gives the order to execute the backup. I think this is the first visit to the site after the time indicated. Perhaps we should make a check if there is an execution that is already running or the last run!

I say this to help it evolve. In all I waited a long time, thank you!

A check like that is already made. However, there are three files stored in your site's cache directory for plg_aklazy to know if another backup is running, the current code to access the backup step functionality and the time of the last backup. If you clean your cache directory these files are gone and the backup restarts all the time. Also check that you haven't accidentally activated the Test Mode, as it will always cause a new backup to start despite your scheduling settings.

Hi,

And thank you for your answer.

So if I summarize it in the file / cache / aklazy.lastbackup.php makes this control
It's n ow 7:50 and the file is still there with the date modified 2:50 third time backup Tonight

On my system cache lifetime = 15 minutes. Does it need to change?
I did not dump cache otherwise automatic!
Can we change the directory of this file to test?

Thanks

sharky

I am working on an alternative storage for plg_aklazy's files in order to rule out being overwritten while they are in the cache.

Great! The dev release of plg_aklazy solved the caching issues, so we can move it to production with confidence. Thank you for your testing!
