Trying to use Upkeep to backup site. This is my first use of the plugin for WP and the backup keeps failing. The log keeps repeating an issue; the last part of the log is below, can anyone help?
(…database backed up OK to this point. Then the following after “Backup Complete” keeps repeating many times, then message says backup failed…)

Hi Hank,
Thanks so much for reaching out. I’m sorry to hear that you’re having problems creating backup with Total Upkeep but lets see if we can help you out.The first thing that I spot when I look over the log you provided is the permissions error. This is likely due to your file permissions with your host.
Additionally, moving down your error log. It looks like the pcntl_async_signals method is not enabled in the version of PHP currently running on your web server and enabling it should get rid of the error message. You might need to reach out to your hosting provider to see if one or both of these issues are something that they can handle for you.
Hopefully making that configuration change gets the backup schedule working again and let us know if there is anything else that we can do to help!
