Hi again, I am having same issue now even when I upgraded to new WordPress version 4.7.2. I am running latest version of woocommerece and wordpress version is 4.5.6 and it works fine. Now when I upgrade wordpress to newer version 4.7.2 then it piled up my database connections and finally crash the database. I reverted the wordpress version back to 4.5.6 now.
Latest wordpress version 4.7.2 is creating problems and I am not able to update my site. Can you assist with this fix?
