Thankyou vupdraft

I am happy to advise that I solved this issue on my wordpress instance.
Note there were other signs of issues with my wordpress instance i.e. the button to add new themes was missing with other plugins like updraft plus where the tabs to configure remote storage weren’t working.

I am not sure which of the following fixed it, but most likely reinstalling the site ssl cert (which was showing issues)
– reinstalling my ssl cert
– switching php versions
– attempting to enable php debug

Hope this helps someone else.

I have this problem too, I tried downloading the tweaked version provided by vupdraft? but it didn’t help.

I went through the following:
uninstall wordfence
install wordfence assistant
click the uninstall all tables and data button
click the uninstall firewall button
reinstall wordfence
go through normal setup procedure

Note <ftpuser> is my ftp user and <wordpresssite> is my wordpress site

But on reinstall of wordfence security got the following error:
Wordfence generated an error on activation. The output we received during activation was: WordPress database error: [Table ‘<ftpuser>_<wordpresssite>.wpky_wfConfig’ doesn’t exist]SELECT name, val, autoload FROM wpky_wfConfig WHERE name = ‘allowLegacy2FA’WordPress database error: [Table ‘<ftpuser>_<wordpresssite>.wpky_wfConfig’ doesn’…[output truncated]

I did seem to be able to setup wordfence OK and when I tried reinstalling wordpress it allowed me to without an out of memory fatal error.

sorry should have said….

I have the same issue with WordPress 5.4.2 with WordFence 7.4.7.
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Before I deactivated this plugin, I had out of memory errors installing plugins and trying to upgrade wordpress.

I tried deleting wordfence and then reinstalling and reactivating. But had the fatal error or reactivation.
