Please look at the bottom of this page (under Support Policy Summary) for our support policy summary, containing important information regarding our working hours and our support policy. Thank you!

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Description of my issue: PHP memory is set at 128M, I have rerun the configuration, and my backup still keeps failing giving the error: Akeeba\Engine\Dump\Base :: Database Error: Can't find file: 'ozo6h_mls_features' (errno: 2 - No such file or directory) SQL=SHOW CREATE TABLE `ozo6h_mls_features`
I checked in phpmyadmin, and the database table ozo6h_mls_features does exist. I also have other websites with the mls_features component, and it does not seem to impact the backup nor do I get the error message on the other websites.

Attached is the log file.

The memory size is irrelevant. Also note that the error comes from MySQL itself, not Akeeba Backup. It simply means that this table is crashed.

Kindly keep in mind that MySQL keeps the names of the tables inside its own database space, called "mysql". The actual data of the tables, however, are stored elsewhere on disk. If they are MyISAM tables, each table consists of one to three files. If any of these files is damaged or no longer present MySQL will report that the table is not found. If you read the error message carefully you will see that this is the case. MySQL helpfully notes that the problem is "No such file or directory".

Please contact your host and show them this error message. They will need to fix your database. Most likely the data on this table will be gone and the table will have to be removed for MySQL to stop complaining. Hopefully you have an earlier backup you can use to restore it from?
