Backup to Dropbox Stopped working #113

I successfully ran a backup after installing your free plugin. I then purchased both the ZIP and Email options. The second time the backup ran I received an email notification that is succeeded but when I checked the Dropbox folder all I saw was the log file. After reading the log file, I am wondering why after uploading the .ZIP backup, it then deleted it. After this second backup attempt the plugin has not tried a backup. I have setting set to Daily and to keep two backups. I have at least 3.5Gb of free space in DropBox. I can see no processing errors in the log file. Log file contents follow:

Still not working...even though Settings are to run Daily, the backup only runs weekly. Log file is always created, email notification sent and received, but no .zip file exists in the Drobox folder. From the log file I can see two obvious problems. One - the plugin is not saving 2 backups, as set in Settings. Two - the plugin is deleting the file it just uploaded in the step following the upload process. I feel these bugs are related. I would very much appreciate some feedback on this. Following is the latest Log file:

What do you have "How many backups do you want to keep within Dropbox?" set to?
