I’m trying a few things on cloudflare and was thinking of leaving R2 in the future. That’s why, when I was examining the backups, I saw that the installations were not included and it gave an error. When making a backup manually, it gives the same error in the transaction logs. Pictures and files in local are backed up, but pictures in Cloudflare R2 are not backed up.

An example error code:

My configuration is like this:
