I am trying to create FME Flow backup in order to upgrade it to the newer version.

What can be wrong, how I can fix this? Thank you in advance.

Yes, thank you. It turned out that we had old data that I didn't notice at first.

Checked FME Server system share folder. On Windows, the default path is: C:\ProgramData\Safe Software\FME Server.

Removed unneeded data and backup was created successfully.
