EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Description of my issue:

The jpa file for my site is above 100MB. As a result uploads to dropbox are failing and I get an error when backing up. Is there a way to configure Akeeba to deal with these large backup files and to get it to dropbox anyway?
