Error creating archive

> Duplicator Issues might occur when [open\_basedir] is enabled  
> Work with your server admin to disable this value in the php.ini file if youre having issues building a package.

> Max Execution Time: 20  
> Issues might occur for larger packages when the [max\_execution\_time] value in the php.ini is too low. The minimum recommended timeout is 150 seconds or higher. An attempt is made to override this value if the server allows it. A value of 0 (recommended) indicates that PHP has no time limits.

As I understand it, it depends how you set on the server php.ini

Help me please.

Well, we set those limits for a reason and to values which are reasonable for normal websites.

I just Googled “duplicator plugin” and the results imply it’s a Wordpress plugin. Can I assume you’re using Wordpress?

If you want to move a Wordpress site, I highly recommend to follow Wordpress’ official documentation regarding [moving wordpress](https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress) rather than trying to use a plugin which needs to package your entire website contents through a script.
