How to fix End of script output before headers: index.php error [#2597728]

I am getting the following errors in the Apache log when I run backup (entire site) on my local computer using Acquia Dev Desktop. How can I solve this problem?

[Thu Oct 15 18:11:47.700156 2015] [fcgid:warn] [pid 2912:tid 908] [client 127.0.0.1:60171] mod_fcgid: read timeout from pipe, referer: http://openoutreach-7-x-1-19.dd:8083/admin/config/system/backup_migrate/...

This problem began after I uploaded several videos which makes the backup file larger. Backup works (with the videos) at my ISP. I guess this is because they are using SSD's instead of hard disks? Presumably this is a timing issue that could be changed. I just don't know where to look for the setting.

Ok. It seems for me, not this created the error, I had a theme, which had node_modules dir, where were some libs for the grunt. And the drupal scanned this too.

Can you verify if this is still an issue with the newest 7.x-3.2 release?

I have this problem with the latest dev desktop on Windows 10 when I try an upgrade from D7 to D8 on a site that's not that big. I'm wondering if I can modify the upgrade/migration to not bother with content at this time, just modules & db setting, and then later do the actual content?

@streever, What it sounds like you need is some help from the command line pulling and pushing your data where it needs to go. Backup and Migrate isn't equipped to help with these special needs right now, and all our development effort for new features is going into the 8.x branch. I'd recommend that you try to find someone who can help you with this and then look for the new release candidate of Backup and Migrate 8.x-4.x coming soon that will help you with routine, ongoing maintenance.

I'm going to close this issue since it sounds like all three users who have posted have slightly different issues that could be addressed locally. Comment #1 was dealing with video files and undetermined ISP issues. Comment #2 had an issue with the theme. Comment #3 could possibly have some issues with the Windows 10 dev desktop environment, since I've seen a few other issues posted in the 7.x branch about that. You might want to look at a different local dev stack that is more tailored to the requirements of Drupal. Also, @streever, you may find that a simple upgrade to the latest 7.x-3.2 release would solve your problem. Yet another 7.x release is expected in the next few weeks, as well, so be looking for that.
