Do you have binary data in you db, such as attachments, pictures, mp3 files?
Try to lower the speed parameter in MySQLDumper configuration. What values are you using right now?

You can check if the backup is complete by unpacking it and opening it with a text-editor (MS Word isn't one!). If you see an "#EOB" at the end of the file, the backup is complete.

Hi,

PHP has a limit, how much memory it can use for storing data in working memory. In your case this memory ist limited to 32 MiB, but your databas/backup is larger.

Try to use multipart backup. A size of 20 MiB should be fine for you.

Best regards
Stefan

You are trying to send the backup via mail?
Then the attachement ist too big. Use the Multipart option or turn off sending the backup via email.
