Thanks for your answer. Your issue really reminds me of yours.
And I also experience, since I posted the issue already several times during the last 7 days, that none of the moderators/supporters was able to give a clear and simple answer whether this behaviour is just fine due to the wc_uploads-folder’s .htaccess code “deny from all” or not.
All the answers except yours were always turning around wrong server configurations, theme or plugin conflicts etc.
So far I’m quite disappointed about the support you get here.

This happened when I wanted to update woocommerce to the latest version available.

@conschneider

I had a look at the plesk-support site you mentioned. I then logged in my plesk account to Apache & nginx Settings > Additional HTTP directives.
However, the dashboard there looks different and all possible settings to be made are set to “standard”.
But as far as I know my server host implements all security settings like ?forbid execution of php scripts“ directly on the server.
So could this still be the reason why I encountered the issues mentioned?

Anyone out there who can still give me some piece of an advice/support?

I checked now the wp-content- uploads – woocommerce_uploads directory and did find a .htaccess file containing the following line: deny from all.

However, as far as I could find out while searching on google this line is set there by wc itself and should not be removed for security reasons.

What do you recommend?

@mtg169

Ok, thanks for your reply.
I will check that with the .htaccess file too.

In the meantime I was able to find out that in regard of security settings the following was enabled:

Forbid execution of PHP scripts in the wp-content/uploads directory

Could this cause the issues I encountered?

@mtg169

I checked the memory limit under Woocommerce Status. It’s already 256m.

However, I found the following error messages in the server protocol:

403 GET /wp-content/uploads/woocommerce_uploads/ HTTP/1.0

AH01797: client denied by server configuration: /home/httpd/vhosts/xxxxx.xx/xxxxx.xx/public/wp-content/uploads/woocommerce_uploads/, referer: https://www.xxxxx.xx/wp-content/uploads/woocommerce_uploads/

Hi @sukafia

I did not do a conflict test since my server host was able to install a backup very quickly. As I already mentioned my server host claims that there is no fault on their side.
So now I’m in the situation that the update v5.3 is available again in the plugin dashboard, but I’m unsure whether to update it or not.

Hello
Thanks for your answer.
However, in the meantime I had contact with WPML support.
They told me that Gutenberg has a problem with the latest post widget (issue with filter options). So it’s not a WPML related issue.
For example with Beaver Builder integrated into Gutenberg it works. But with Gutenberg alone: no chance!
