When i try to backup client or domain, i get this error:

Error in BackupState.doActivityRunner()
Traceback (most recent call last):

Can some of u please help me to fix this

Thenk you

EDIT:

The backup on 8.0.1 was working fine
 
Could you quote any suspicious entries from /var/lib/psa/dumps/<backup_folder/agent_runner.log?

(this folder will be accessible when error produces)
 
Run a psa/bin/pleskbackup utility. Probably there is a fatal error on backup creation.
