Right, we need to set up the cronjobs…
The backup is queued to be done and then every minute there is a cron job run, that checks if there are some backup tasks pending and performs them.
See wikidot/files/crontab file and if it makes sense, append it to the /etc/crontab file. You need to change the user in each line. Just replace www-data with user you run wikidot as.
I raised a bug on this: 17.

Remember this is the same code in wikidot.com and wikidot.org. Since site backups are fairly intensive, they're done offline via a cron job as Piotr explains.
You could configure this to run every 5 seconds without any performance hit, which would give you near-instant backups.
I'll check this myself. In the meantime do this:
- disable the cronjob (remove the line with HandleBackupRequestsJob from /etc/crontab)
- issue the backup using the browser
- sudo -u www-data /path/to/wikidot/bin/job.sh HandleBackupRequestsJob
You'll see what's the error.
