Updating translations infinite loop and fatal error logs

Hi Alex @adowdalls,

Thank you for reaching out.

I understand that you’re experiencing issues with an infinite loop in the translation update and seeing errors in your logs. I’m here to help.

The error you’re seeing in your logs is related to the WooCommerce Multilingual plugin and a specific array key “nl” that is undefined. It also seems like there’s an issue with a null object in the wc-notice-functions.php file.

To troubleshoot this further, I suggest you first try to deactivate and reactivate the Mollie Payments for WooCommerce plugin. This can often reset the plugin and resolve any pending updates.

As for the PHP errors, they seem to be related to the WooCommerce Multilingual plugin. Here’s what you can do to test the issue further:

1. Ensure that all your plugins, themes, and WordPress itself are updated to the latest versions.
2. Temporarily switch to a default theme like Twenty Twenty-Four or Storefront and deactivate all plugins except WooCommerce and WooCommerce Multilingual to see if the issue persists. If the errors disappear, reactivate your theme and plugins one by one until you find the one causing the conflict. You can find more details on how to run a conflict test here.

Please remember to back up your site before making any changes.

Let me know how it goes.

I received an update from WPML to update to the newer versions of their plugins WPML Multilingual CMS 4.6.14 and String Translation 3.2.15 in advance of the release of WordPress 6.7. These three updates were performed at midnight last night automatically and seem to have updated successfully

I tried the “Update Translations” again and now it gave a different error “Download Failed – Bad Gateway”

So I am still in the unending loop but now with this error – how do I resolve this?

Thanks for your help

This is what I observe in the error log at this moment (after updating to latest versions)
