 * Hi there,
 * Currently de plugin is not on my site because it breaks my site when I want to
   activate it. I have disabled all my other plugin to see if there would be a conflict
   with one of those, but no. Even with no other plugin, my site broke.
 * So, I need a little help, so I can use the plugin. I’m on the genesis framework
   with foodie pro as child theme.
 * Thanks in advance,
    Marleen
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-breaks-my-site-when-activated%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey there!
 * I’m sorry to hear you are having this issue – you mentioned you are using the
   Genesis theme framework, have you tried to activate WooCommerce with a default
   theme (such as Twenty Nineteen or Storefront) to see if you still had the same
   issue then?

 * Hi Fevered,
 * Yes, also then my site breaks. I get a critical error. But it takes forever for
   the plugin to get downloaded form the store.

 * Hey there,
 * Thanks for that – that does sound very strange that it happens with everything
   deactivated. Can you send a copy of the fatal error you see? Can you send me 
   a link to where you downloaded the plugin from, just to confirm?

 * Hi Fevered,
 * How can I send you a print screen of the error I see? It’s about a error on line
   44.
 * I downloaded form the wordpress plugin store: [https://soepielicious.com/wp-admin/plugin-install.php?s=woo&tab=search&type=term](https://soepielicious.com/wp-admin/plugin-install.php?s=woo&tab=search&type=term).

 * That error looks to be about the Action Scheduler tables, and it seems to say
   they don’t exist – there is an issue here on GitHub with some things to try in
   terms of fixing the issue: [https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues/25895](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues/25895)

 * Hi Fevered,
 * Thank you! However, I have no clue what they are talking about on that page (
   just started with WP). Can you offer some assistants or can you tell me where
   I can get some help?
 * Thank you in advance.

 * Hi there,
    There is a small free plugin that shold fix this issue by rebuilding
   the missing tables. You can download it from here:
 * [https://github.com/woocommerce/action-scheduler/archive/3.1.4.zip](https://github.com/woocommerce/action-scheduler/archive/3.1.4.zip)
 * Simply install it and then visit `Tools ➔ Action Scheduler` and let it do its
   job.
 * Can you please confirm which version of WooCommerce you are installing?

 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to go ahead and mark 
   this thread as resolved. If you have any other questions please feel free to 
   start a new thread.
