Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) French (Français ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Can you please try the following: 1. Log in to Azure Portal: - Access your Azure account at [Azure Portal](hidden link). 2. Modify Azure WAF Policy: - Navigate to your Azure WAF Policy under Application Gateway or Front Door. - Under Managed Rules, add an exclusion rule to bypass specific blocking rules. - Settings for the Exclusion Rule: - Match Variable: Request URI - Operator: Contains - Value: `cdn.wpml.org/wpml-config/config-index.json` 3. Allow Outbound Requests: - Confirm that the server hosting your WordPress site can make outbound requests to `cdn.wpml.org`. - Adjust your firewall settings or Network Security Groups in Azure as needed to allow this connection. 4. Test Access: - Verify that the file at `hidden link` can be accessed. - Confirm the WPML plugin is functioning correctly. 5. Verify Connectivity: - If issues persist, check the WAF logs to identify if Azure is still blocking the outbound connection. - Test connectivity using a tool like `cURL`: curl -I <em><u>hidden link</u></em> Let me know if additional troubleshooting steps are needed!

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) French (Français ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Can you please try the following: 1. Check your database to see if the relevant `icl_` tables are present. If they are missing, proceed with the steps below. 2. If the WPML setup wizard completed but you can access its troubleshooting section, follow the instructions here to reset WPML: [WPML Reset Instructions](https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/deleting-languages-and-plugin-data-by-doing-a-wpml-reset-on-your-site/#step-3-do-the-wpml-reset). Complete the reset and re-run the setup wizard. 3. If the reset doesn't resolve the issue, manually remove `icl_` entries from the `wp_options` table in your database and then re-run the WPML setup wizard. 4. If the `icl_` tables are still not created after these steps, verify that your database user has the necessary permissions to create tables. Let us know the results after trying these steps.

gurshinderS-2	Hi I have check the above in database. I have removed all icl entries from wp_options table and redid the process . Only WP options shows values but only wp_icl_background_task table gets created. None of the other tables get created. rest connectivity with the database in terms of other actions are happening. Only WPML is unable to create tables. Kindly let me know what other steps should i take in order to fix the issue Best

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) French (Français ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Can you do this? So delete everything again and try the WPML wizard while having the below active: 1. Collect Logs: - Enable debugging in `wp-config.php`: define('WP_DEBUG', true); define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true); define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false); - Check the `wp-content/debug.log` for WPML-related errors. - Review PHP and MySQL logs for SQL or permission errors. 2. Test Database Privileges: - Run these SQL commands to confirm permissions: CREATE TABLE test_table (id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY); DROP TABLE test_table; - Ensure the database user has `CREATE`, `ALTER`, `INSERT`, and `DELETE` privileges. 3. Enable Database Query Logging: - Enable query logging in MySQL: SET GLOBAL general_log = 'ON'; - Review the query log for errors or failed WPML-related SQL commands. Let me know if the above brings some info.

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) French (Français ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Ok, let me know if these logs return something.
