General Problems

If you’re experiencing issues while using Duplicator Pro on OVH hosting, follow the steps below to resolve common problems.

Solution One: Build Problems

1. Navigate to Duplicator » Settings » Backups » Advanced.
2. Set “Thread Lock” to “SQL” (The default “File” setting is incompatible with OVH hosting).
3. If PHP 32-bit is enabled, refer to the FAQ: Why does the build fail with various IO file operations?.

Solution Two: License Activation Issues

1. OVH’s mod_security firewall may block HTTPS traffic needed for license activation.
2. Contact OVH support to configure the firewall and allow secure communication.

Backup Transfer to Cloud

OVH may automatically enable a firewall that blocks backup transfers to cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.). Contact OVH support to adjust firewall settings and allow secure HTTPS connections to cloud services.

Note: Talk to OVH host support about configuring the firewall to allow https traffic to communicate to the cloud destinations.
