Confluence powershell script may trip into endless loop

[Stephen Sifers]

The Confluence script may set into a false endless loop that checks on export status.

This will be presented by a constant “Estimated progress : 0%”

[[e-mail]]

Is there a workaround for this issue? The confluence powershell backup keeping looping with “Estimated progress: 0%”

[Stephen Sifers]

Currently, the workaround is to close the script and run it again (this is not ideal but it does allow it to progress past the 0% loop).

There is a Community member who created an updated version of the scripts and was able to resolve some of the issues, like this one.
You may find those update scripts at https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/Contribute-code-to-the-official-scripts-for-Atlassian-cloud/qaq-p/1288516

I had the same issues as stated above re “Estimated progress : 0%” I tried the updated Powershell script in the above link but now getting this error:

Hello,

I have updated the description to add some alternate solutions. In there you can find user provided powershell scripts as well as a node.js app or instructions on how to setup an automation to create backups.

Since those are all valid alternatives, I am not going to fix this.

Please notice none of the listed solutions is officially supported.

Cheers, Dario
