Re: Backup fails in 2.7 when Question Bank included

by Erick French -

I am having a similar problem.  I am running 2.7.1 build 20140724 on windows.  Has anyone else encountered this?  

I cannot manually run a backup which includes the question bank.  The screen just turns blank and hangs.  I can back up just the question bank but not everything I need together.

Attached is a screen shot of back up settings that will work. Below is a copy of the technical information on a successful back up which does not include the question bank.  

Backups are crucially important.  Does anyone have any guidance?  What other information can I add to help troubleshoot this problem?

Thank you,

Erick

Ynt: Backup fails in 2.7 when Question Bank included

Check "Anonymus Users data" and check mox file uploads on your servers.

Thanks for your reply.  When I select anonymize user information the backup gets to the next screen but then freezes with a weird timing message.  Please see attached.

Back-ups did work just fine in the previous moodle version 2.6.

Have you resolved this problem? We are experiencing the same. We are using 2.7.1+. Full restoring fails at +- 27%. If we backup just the Question Bank, backup process freezes. File not large, about 45Mb, however we have about 400 questions in the bank for this course with grading data. We need to migrate this course to another server and tearing our hair out.

Laetitia,

I have not found a solution to the problem.  I think that the issue is known and may be https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-47749.  It looks like no one has posted any kind of update in more than two weeks though.  Have a look and see if this is the same issue you are having.
