Hi,
Which web browser are you using, and which version?
Please try a different web browser – and then let me know if it worked (and what the different browser was).
Best wishes,
David
Thanks for the swift reply.
I was using Firefox 36
I’ve tried using Chrome and Safari, but with the same result.
This happens with the site hanvec21.fr. For another site there was no trouble (kanarvag.org).

Thanks – what version of WordPress is the site running?
If you turn on WP_DEBUG in your wp-config.php , and if you try again and then open the browser’s web developer console (Control-Shift-J, usually), then do any error messages appear?

I’m afraid there I have a problem. For the site in question (hanvec21.fr) I do not have access to the server. (It’s for that reason we are looking to migrate the site onto a different host). So I’m not sure how to access the config file without asking the guy running the server to intervene. I can do that, but he is slow, very slow.
Is there anything else I can try?
By the way – I installed your plugin on another site I’m in the process of migrating and it worked fine, using Firefox. I was able to upload the 3.9mb plugin from UpdraftPlus. Makes me wonder whether the problem is not server related.
Ah – if you’re wanting to migrate the site, then you can install the free version of UpdraftPlus on the source site; its only on the destination side that you need to install a paid version. If you do that, it should avoid the problem (i.e. install using the plugin installer in WordPress that can download directly from the WordPress plugins directory).
I also suspect it’s server-related – the 2Mb point is usually the first time that a chunk gets written to disk, so I suspect it may be file permissions.
