Background of the issue:
I am trying to resolve an authentication error with the ATE Server Communication on my WordPress site (hidden link). The error occurred while using the WPML plugin. I have provided a recovery mode link and some technical details about my site, including WordPress version 6.5.5, active theme Travel Tour Child (version 1.0.0), current plugin WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency (version 5.3.6), and PHP version 8.1.29.
Symptoms:
Unable to authenticate with the ATE Server Communication. The error message is: {"url":"hidden link;,"requestArgs":{"method":"GET"},"status":"auth_error"}.
Questions:
What site do you need help with? hidden link
What are you trying to do? traslation is not working
Is there any documentation that you are following?
As we discussed, moving forward with the troubleshooting of the issue:
- check with your hosting provider to whitelist the following domains:
wpml.org
cdn.wpml.org
api.wpml.org
api.toolset.com
cloudfront.net
- check if there is any error being logged on the debug.log file.
To enable the WordPress Debug log, open your wp-config.php file of the site root and look for
define('WP_DEBUG', false);
Change it to:
// Enable WP_DEBUG mode
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
// Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
// Disable display of errors and warnings
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );
@ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );
In this case, errors should be saved to a debug.log log file inside the */wp-content/* directory. Please do the steps to reproduce the error and check if you are getting any errors or warnings related to WPML in the log file.
If you can paste your debug.log to http://pastebin.com/index.php and provide me with that link it would be great! (This is the cleanest way because sometimes the logs are long and create a complete mess of discussion).
Here, I paste the pastebin link with errors https://pastebin.com/VgvPc0Gu let me know if this is enough for you. If not, i will upload the log in another paste bin as debug is still active gathering all things there.
The minimal setup needs to be made in the same server?. I mean I am worndering test in another server, but dont know honestly how affects the troubleshooting you are making.
As the problem is comunications with your servers our developers ask confirmation prior to making deployment. Please confirm us where should be done
From hosting support they ask the IP's range what WPML needs to establish connections. In that way they can check if they have some kind of connectivity block?
I see that there is no PING from the server to: wpml.org (23.22.113.127), the problem is that, there is no PING from any network (a standard network) to that domain/IP either,
Maybe WPML itself has somehow blocked the incoming connections, so we would have to wait for the IP/s to be provided to add them to the Firewall or check any other kind of casuistry,
I would need temporary access to your website to investigate this issue.
Please fully back up your site (files and database) and confirm it in your next reply.
* Note: I might need to enable/disable plugins, switch themes, and access your website database.
I would need access to your site's WP-admin.
Your next reply is set to private so you can provide the username and password details.
Thank you for the access, I was able to check the website (didn't change anything, just checked the website's configuration).
Can you please try to follow these steps and check if the issue persists:
- Go to https://wpml.org/account/sites/
- Find the key of your site and erase it
- Create a new key and copy it
- From the WordPress dashboard navigate to Plugins -> Add New -> Commercial, Click on "unregister the site" on the right top next to Check for updates
- On this same page, click under the “Register” button below the WPML plugin
- Add your new Site Key copied above
After, clear the website's cache (server-side included) and check if the issue persists.
* I've checked again and on our end, your website is not blocked.
Hi Marsel, I have tried the steps you suggested me and still getting that message. I paste below the log of the last message i got at the moment o f checks. As i might understand, adding that line of code in wp-config.php file will turn off that issue?.
In anyway, to update plugins it should be going manually...
hidden link Installer cannot contact our updates server to get information about the available products and check for new versions. If you are seeing this message for the first time, you can ignore it, as it may be a temporary communication problem. If the problem persists and your WordPress admin is slowing down, you can disable automated version checks. Add the following line to your wp-config.php file:
I have addressed the question of firewall to server support,
Related to staging site, currently there's no enough space in server to clone this environment in another one in order to replicate the same conditions that you are facing it right now,
I ping you back again once i get some reply from our server admin
Regards
