Has there been any resolution to this? I've been digging for answers to this problem here - and I think I've tried all the solutions I could find. Have changed the timing issues, the
permission issues, some "suhosin" code addition, etc. But nothing has fixed it.
I'm running Moodle 1.9, I have 8 courses open. 5 are being developed, 1 has students enrolled but is only populated with quizzes (benchmark exams) and then 2 live courses. All will back up except the 2 live courses. When trying to manually backup I've tried it in the default settings, and it runs through all the back up process, but it simply stops when it says "Zipping Files". I've tried saving it with NO user data, no course files, no logs - and has the same results.
The zipped file can be found in the temp files, but it is corrupted and won't open (size shows 2MB)
Here is the error log from the server:

The "AllowOverride" was a solution the host suggested for a change to the .htaccess in lieu of unix command that was recommended in another post:
- If you're getting this error then it is related to having a file chmod'ed to 0777.
- Simply change the permissions on the file to 755. You do not need the file to be 777.
So in your case, I think you need to change the permissions on the files in the Moodle folder.
Probably the following unix command will do it:
find /home/learning/public_html/Moodle -type f -exec chmod 755 {} \;
Anything stand out here? Any other suggestions?
