Plex Isn't Making Backups

Server Version#: Plex Media Server for MacOS 1.19.4.2935
Player Version#: Plex Web 4.30.2

Under Settings > Scheduled Tasks I have Backup database every three days checked. However, when I navigate to my backup folder, the most recent backup I can find is over a year old:

Why isn’t Plex making backups?

The related support article states Plex will create those backups unless the database is already corrupted.

Right, I get that. That’s why I mentioned that I have Settings > Scheduled Tasks > Backup database every three days checked. Are you saying my database is likely corrupted? Plex seems to have been working fine in day to day use.

Might be worth checking

I tried repairing the database and backups are now working again!! Thanks for the great suggestion.
