Issue

XCloner Backup processes WordPress site backup without any errors but produces only a tiny 2KB .tar archive with a single file inside (administrator\backups\index.html). The strange thing is that XCloner backup log shows that thousands of files were detected and processed.

Resolution

To resolve the issue I simply had to add trailing / at the end of Backup Start Path and Backup Store Path in XCloner config.
