One of my sites is hosted with all-inkl.com. I've setup frontend backup via wget which is starting but ending in

"Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request."

Their support told me that they knock out a script after 10min without interaction. Because of the size of the backup and serverspeed we need around 30min.

Do you know how to achieve this?

Hello,

that's a big strange, since we issue redirects at the end of each step, so it's like a regular user is surfing around.

Can you please share the log of a failed backup?

Hi Davide,

thx for following up. Seems the cron (or wget for that matter) is reporting the error in the crons message.

I checked Akeebas "Manage Backups" and there everything seems fine which I assume is more reliable here.

Cheers,

Ralf
