Hi @Andre1976

Your XB version is really old, please use [Percona XtraBackup 2.4](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/2.4/index.html) to perfom backups on MySQL 5.7.

You would need to uninstall that version, and you can install the 2.4 using this [steps](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/2.4/installation/yum_repo.html) from the Documentation (This is for installing in CentOS).

I hope this helps you.
