    Hi – thanks for your great plugin.

    I keep getting an ajax error warning in my admin dashboard (multisite, multinetwork setup)

    wflogs/template.0830849001735529884.tmp): No such file or directory”

    the file name maybe changes, I’m not sure…

    it goes away upon refreshing the page

    Hi @rapidasia,

    This looks like a temporary file that is either having problems because of permissions that may require a switch to the MySQLi engine instead of physical files, but in some cases we ignore files that are no longer present intentionally to reduce the plugin’s workload on your server.

    Are you using anything like Query Monitor or another tool/plugin to monitor PHP warnings, errors, etc. or is this showing on the front-end of your site?

    Many thanks,
    Peter.

    Hi – it’s a Query Monitor notification

    no error revealed in browser dev tools

    I’m not overly concerned but thought it would be worth exploring

    thanks

    Hi @rapidasia, thanks for clarifying.

    Errors such as this are often picked up in Query Monitor for our intended silent failures. We sometimes utilize WordPress’?$wpdb->suppress_errors(true);?function or PHP’s?@?in situations we know an error may occur. These tools tend to ignore those whereas they’d normally not show to any customers or their site’s visitors.

    There’s no fixed amount of resources we know Wordfence will use on each customer’s server. Therefore, some non-critical situations where it’s more expensive on resources to retry or check for the presence of a file/record first, we simply choose to fail silently and continue. This sounds like what’s happening here with the tmp file.

    Thanks again,
    Peter.
