   Hello WooCommerce Team,

   I would like to report a fatal error that occurs after updating WooCommerce from version 10.8.1 to 10.9.1.

   I experienced the same issue on two separate WordPress/WooCommerce websites. On the first website, I updated WooCommerce through the WordPress admin panel. On the second website, I performed the update manually, but the same fatal error occurred again.

   Fatal error:

   CRITICAL Uncaught Error: Class “Automattic\WooCommerce\Admin\Settings\SettingsSectionRegistry” not found in /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/admin/settings/class-wc-settings-page.php:281

   Stack trace excerpt:

   #0 /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/includes/class-wc-register-wp-admin-settings.php(114): WC_Settings_Page->get_sections()
   #1 /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(341): WC_Register_WP_Admin_Settings->register_page_settings()
   #2 /wp-includes/plugin.php(205): WP_Hook->apply_filters()

   #4 /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/src/Internal/Admin/Settings.php(169): WC_REST_Setting_Options_V2_Controller->get_group_settings()
   #5 /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(341): Automattic\WooCommerce\Internal\Admin\Settings->add_component_settings()
   #6 /wp-includes/plugin.php(205): WP_Hook->apply_filters()

   #8 /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/src/Blocks/Assets/AssetDataRegistry.php(272): Automattic\WooCommerce\Internal\Admin\WCAdminSharedSettings->{closure}()
   #9 /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/src/Blocks/Assets/AssetDataRegistry.php(388): Automattic\WooCommerce\Blocks\Assets\AssetDataRegistry->execute_lazy_data()

   Steps to reproduce:

   Start with WooCommerce 10.8.1.
   Update WooCommerce to 10.9.1.
   Open the WordPress admin area or WooCommerce admin pages.
   A fatal error occurs.

   Expected result:

   WooCommerce should update from 10.8.1 to 10.9.1 without causing a fatal error.

   Actual result:

   WooCommerce throws a fatal PHP error because the following class cannot be found:

   Automattic\WooCommerce\Admin\Settings\SettingsSectionRegistry

   This issue does not appear to be limited to a single website, because I reproduced the same fatal error on two different installations, including one manual update.

   Environment:

   WooCommerce previous version: 10.8.1
   WooCommerce updated version: 10.9.1
   WordPress version: 7.0
   PHP version: 8.3.31
   Server: OpenLiteSpeed

   Could you please investigate whether WooCommerce 10.9.1 has a packaging, autoloading, or class-loading issue related to this class?

   Automattic\WooCommerce\Admin\Settings\SettingsSectionRegistry

   I can provide the full fatal error logs if needed.

   Thank you.

   Hi WooCommerce team,

   After updating from WooCommerce 10.8.1 to 10.9.1, a critical fatal error occurs immediately after the update. I have confirmed via File Manager that the file src/Admin/API/Settings.php is completely absent from the plugin directory after the update.

   Hi All,

   Following updating multiple sites to 10.9.1 – any items added to the catalogue have broken permalinks.

      thanks Pete — I’ll route this to the team internally to investigate, and we’ll update here once we understand what might be happening. Out of curiosity, do you happen to have a support ticket open https://woocommerce.com/my-account/contact-support/ ?

   Thanks Brent

   To clarify – items are being added/created via an API feed.

   These have been created succesfully across multiple sites up to (it appears) the release of 10.9.1

   No other changes have been made to the API feed.

   Manually created products generate the permalink as expected

      Hello Pete,

      I’m sorry that you are experiencing these errors, can you tell us a bit more on your use-case? How are your products added exactly? Is the API not returning any error whatsoever? Since we suspect this might be malformed data, are your products using the unique id field (like ISBN, UPC, EAN, GTIN…)?
