Hi, 

Couple days ago, I managed a file-system backup of the full site (100mb)

 

but now somethings happened, I'm not sure what?   perhaps an update affected it?  or a plugin installed or something?   but now when I run the backup, only the database backs up (2mb) and it completely ignores the Filesystem Cry  I havent changed anything ............  and there's no excluded files (as I want the whole backup)

 

Filesystem backup...

Scanning files system... done! (Estimated size:0.00MB) in 0 files   CryCry

hmmm, sorry I'm too impatient lol.  I moved to the plugin called BackUpWordPress which works exactly the same. I thought xcloner was a good idea, as it seemed to be an exact copy of akeeba (joomla backup software) which I was using before I made the move to wordpress, but this seems to have problems.

try and reinstall XCloner so it gets the settings to default, then make sure your Backup Start Path folder is readable by all users...
