Hello. I keep getting error after backup job (backing files to OneDrive cloud) is done:

> [Error-Duplicati.Library.Main.Operation.TestHandler-FailedToProcessFile]: Failed to process file duplicati-b345d090b9a6a49b4a9f08f09e6ec60a3.dblock.zip.aes

Entire log can be found here: [Duplicati - Pastebin.com](https://pastebin.com/TjuDGzYK)  
Would be nice if someone could explain, what’s wrong.

Hello and welcome!

The relevant error in your pastebin seems to be:

```
HTTP timeout 00:01:40 exceeded

```

What back end type are you using? Have you customized the remote volume size (default is 50MB)? You may need to specify a higher value for [–http-operation-timeout](https://duplicati.readthedocs.io/en/latest/06-advanced-options/#http-operation-timeout).

I think @drwtsn32 has it, especially seeing that your original post says that you use OneDrive, which has somewhat different code (compared to some other destinations) and is using the [Microsoft default timeout](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.net.http.httpclient.timeout?view=netframework-4.8).

The short answer is probably the suggested one, but because you possibly are looking for the explanation:

```plaintext
      "KnownFileCount": 1654,
      "KnownFileSize": 84365942734,

```

suggests an oversize remote volume (dblock) size of 100 MB. Not normally a problem, but might timeout depending on Internet speed. Most people get this on uploads (many technologies are slower uploading), however you’ve uploaded about 84 GB yet are getting this timeout on [test downloads](https://duplicati.readthedocs.io/en/latest/03-using-the-graphical-user-interface/#verifying-backend-files) after actual backup.

“RetryAttempts”: 4 may be the 5 total tries on dblock file, but About → Show log → Live → Retry can say.  
You can probably also press the `Verify files` button for the backup to look at its verification in isolation.  
If you’ve been testing different remote volume sizes, it’s also possible you sampled a bigger one this time.  
The default saved log shows the name of the test file that failed, and a fuller log (e.g. live) shows the size.
