Course Backup Error (Moodle 2.9)

Course Backup Error (Moodle 2.9)

Hi all,

I have a rather odd problem, we run nightly course backups and occasionally I have the odd course that fails due to what seems to be 'too many' activities and resources added in sections. I had this with 2.6 last year too although the number before this error occurs seems to have increased from 160 to 250 activities/resources. Once I've removed enough items the course backs up fine...

Has anyone experienced this issue or know what could be the cause of it? As it is happening more and more with course growth.

Thanks in anticipation,

Check apache/web server error logs and/or other error logs.    Not sure without really seeing, but you might need to increase values for the number of open files for DB.
