I haven&#8217;t messed with my website for quite a few months (personal issues), but now I need to get it up and running to sell my crafts with woocommerce.  A window on top woocommerce CONSTANTLY tells me to update the database. I hit the update button and it immediately errors on a new page saying &#8220;Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.&#8221;.  I&#8217;ve turned off ALL plugins and still the same.  I&#8217;ve validated the database header in the login.php file to the header on my phpadmin.  Still the same one since I created the website in 2016.  I tried to run the database update in woocommerce\/status\/tools\/  It tells me it is scheduled in the background.  But if I look in the scheduled actions, nothing.  Of course as soon as I hit the update, that window on top warning to update the database.  I even ftp to my website and completely deleted the woocommerce plugin since the delete is greyed out in the plugins section.  When I reinstalled woocommerce, everything is the same, like it never got deleted.  I am pulling my hair out how to fix this.  Can anyone help please?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-18534872","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-database-error"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18534872","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18534872\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18534872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
