Have I searched the tickets before posting? yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? yes
Joomla! version: 2.5.11
PHP version: 5.3.10
MySQL version: 5.5.29
Akeeba Backup version: 3.7.6

I have a problem with the frontend backup. Manually it works.
I create the URL with KEY PROFILE and it starts, it runs for a while and then this error.


The log did not say much, I join.
I augementer values
Max. exec. time and memory limit
spliter archive
no better

By cons, if I can restore (kickstart) using the archives created with the backup.
It seems he can not proceed to the next step (send email or other)

Thank you for your help

As noted in our documentation, you are not supposed to access that URL via the browser because there's a 20 redirections limit. Please consult our documentation for further information.

What is the correct value for the browser?

The browsers have a hard limit of 20 redirections. Even though you can change it in some browsers (like Firefox) I strongly suggest that you don't. It may end up causing problems on other sites. Remember, the front-end backup was never designed to be used through your browser. Don't try it, it is supposed to break in this case :)
