Woocommerce 3.9.3 to 4.0.1 Update writes huge logs

    When I update from Woocommerce 3.9.3 to the offered 4.0.1 and update the database I start to get continuous log writings to the wp-admin directory. The log grows in size quite fast and fills up my allocated disk space.

    If I roll back to 3.9.3 the problem stops. It appears that something is missing from the database tables after the update.

    How can I solve this problem please? Has anyone experienced something similar. I cannot get help from Woocommerce because I am a free user.

    My site is running on WordPress 5.4.1–en_GB. I have also noticed that many other plugins are not yet compatible with Woocommerce 4.0.1. This is made quite clear when selecting Woocommerce to be upgraded.

  • Hi @praffert1,

    Updating to WooCommerce 4+ involves a change to the Action Scheduler library that’s included with WooCommerce. It moves its content from a custom post type to custom tables. Because of that, a few tables will need to be created in the database.

    You can see if these tables have been created by going to WooCommerce > Status. The tables will be listed in the system report. The ones added by the Action Scheduler are:

    
wp_actionscheduler_actions
wp_actionscheduler_claims	 	
wp_actionscheduler_groups	 	
wp_actionscheduler_logs

    If you don’t see these in the list, that could indicate that the database user that WordPress relies on does not have permission to create new tables. You can check with the web host about that if you don’t see them.

    Let me know what you find out and we’ll go from there.

    Cheers
