What app is this about, and its version : Wordpress 6.9.1~ynh1
What YunoHost version are you running : 12.1.39 (stable)
What type of hardware are you using : VPS bought online
Describe your issue
The latest upgrade to Wordpress from 6.9.1~ynh1 to 6.9.4~ynh1 failed, saying “Failed to collect files to backed up for wordpress.”
I am not sure if it is an issue of Wordpress or Yunohost. I have no idea what to investigate next.
Thanky for any help in advance.

Can you share -removing sensitive data- the /etc/yunohost/app/wordpress/settings.yml ?
Two possible workarounds to upgrade: either without backup (option -b in CLI) or after recreating the /etc/php/8.4/fpm/pool.d/wordpress.conf/etc/php/8.4/fpm/pool.d/wordpress.conf. See here : WordPress install went bad Now getting a 502 bad gateway and no way to reverse - #14 by xabi

I tried to locate /etc/yunohost/apps/wordpress/settings.yml (since an app folder doesn’t exist) using Filezilla and got a ‘permission denied’ error. Trying to investigate further.
