Description of my issue:
not sure if I am doing something wrong... but I never used this configuration and I am having some issues.
My purpose is to backup a non-Joomla site, using a Joomla intstall on the same account.
Once the backup will work, I want to upload it to A S3... but this comes later.
I installed Joomla on the same level of public_html right out of it, see here:
/home/sdsmuge/public_html ---> the site to backup
/home/sdsmuge/ww2 ---> the joomla install with Akeeba (the directory is accessible from the web).
Site root override is enabled and Force Site Root is set to [ROOTPARENT]/public_html

The backup goes through but something does not work. the site is 500mb and jpa file is 10 to 30 mb.
I already checked exclusios and they are set correctly.
Any hint?
Thanks Carlo

yes it it (see this screenshot http://polimedia.clarify-it.com/d/fa94d3) but as mentioned, it does not seem to work properly.
Also backup size changes each time in an unpredictable way, see here http://polimedia.clarify-it.com/d/tlzmln the site has NEVER changed, but backup size varies impressively.
Am I doing something wrong?
Carlo

True.. but with override enabled shouldn't it backup only the public_html directory? Don't forget that public_html does not include Joomla site directory and it's about 500MB....

MMMM you are right about Akeeb version, it was not the very latest version, it was 3.5.1 and probably had some problem, I updated it to 3.5.2 and now all is working fine, including A S3 upload.
Thanks

great, sorry I did not think this could be a specific version issue and I did not realize there was 3.5.2 out.
Anyway I am glad it's all working fine now.
Sincerely Carlo
