Hi

I have established a postprocessing configuration to send the backup files to box.com. It works fine, when I actually run the authenication process between akeeba and box.com.

The next time when the process is running the authentication seems to get lost. The postprocessing end with an error saying.

>>

The last backup of your site had these errors...
Failed to process file /var/www/clients/xxxxxxxxx/administrator/components/com_akeebabackup/backup/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.jpa
Error received from the post-processing engine:
Unexpected HTTP status 404
Post-processing interrupted -- no more files will be transferred

<<

The attached log file is from a client. All sites of my clients und my site do have this problem. Thank you for your help.

Regards

Roland

There seems to be a typo. Please open the file administrator/components/com_akeebabackup/vendor/akeeba/engine/engine/Postproc/Connector/Box.php and find line 191. It currently reads:

$refreshResponse = $this->fetch('GET', $baseUrl, $query);

Change it so that it reads:

$refreshResponse = $this->fetch('GET', $baseUrl, $refreshUrl);

The change is shown in bold type.

Please try this change and let me know if it worked for you. If not, please ZIP and attach the new backup log file.
