I’ve just added a new (old) plugin to this site along with a release of a new version. WP S3 Backups allows for quiet, automated backups to be performed from your WordPress site to Amazon’s S3 platform. It costs next to nothing to keep a secure off-site backup of your blog’s files (15 cents for one gigabyte).

Hi
Hope you have the time for a bug report:
I get this error from Automatic WordPress Backup in the plugin configuration menu.
Warning: shell_exec() [function.shell-exec]: Cannot execute using backquotes in Safe Mode in automatic-wordpress-backup.php on line 249
Would be nice if you can make the plugin work in safe mode

An upcoming version should be able to run while in safe mode by doing file-by-file backups instead of zip-based backups.
Can’t you use one of these to get zip functionality with no shell execs?

An old version used PHP to build the zip, but I had to abandon that because it was very easy to soak up PHP’s memory allocation because it has to keep the contents in memory. By forking it out to the native zip program, it totally gets around that limitation.
I’ll be waiting for the non-zip version
