Problem:
If you're experiencing a fatal error when trying to activate the WPML plugin on your WordPress site, it might be due to a conflict with another plugin or a previous installation.
Solution:
First, we recommend enabling the WordPress debug log to identify the specific error. You can do this by adding the following lines to your

file:

After updating the file, try to activate the plugin again and check the

for any specific error messages.
If the issue persists, follow these steps:
1. Make a full backup of your site.
2. Access your database and go to the wp_options table.
3. Locate and delete the icl_sitepress_settings key.
4. Try reinstalling and activating the WPML plugin.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, it might be due to a redirect set by another plugin, such as Yoast SEO. Check the Redirects section in Yoast SEO and remove any unnecessary redirects.
