backup error

I tried setting up an automatic backup from within Moodle, and for each course in the logs I get:

Time Taken                         Status   Next
1 Jan, 03:00 - 1 Jan, 03:00 Error 30 Jul, 07:15

I set it up to run at 7:15 every Friday, so it should have run today. What is the problem? What does "time taken" mean?

Hi n,

The time taken and status columns in the logs have sense once a scheduled backup has been executed, no before it. They will show the time used to make the scheduled backup and its final status.

As I see in your post above, I suppose that you've defined to execute you scheduled backups every Friday at 07:15 and Moodle has calculated its next backup to be executed next Friday (30th July). Perhaps you've defined it after today's 07:15?

Anyway your Moodle's cron system has to be running to allow scheduled backups to be executed...
