 * I updated WP and WC. Now I receive this “update database” notification in the
   admin panel. But when I click it, a message error shows up: “Something went wrong
   while triggering this note’s action.”
 * I already tried cleaning transients, with no success.
 * P.S.: I have B2B King installed also.

 * Hi [@lplohmann](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lplohmann/),
 * Thank you for reaching out!
 * It sounds like you’re encountering an issue with updating the database after 
   your WP and WC updates. To help us investigate further, could you please provide
   screenshots of the error you’re seeing? This will give us a clearer picture of
   what’s happening.
 * In the meantime, please try updating the database by going to **WooCommerce >
   Status > Tools** and selecting **Update Database**. Let us know if that resolves
   the issue or if the error persists.
 * Looking forward to your response!

 * Hi. I accessed the admin again today and the messages were gone. No more “update
   database needed”.
 * Still, I went to WC > Status > Tools and selected Update Database. But this time
   it successfully scheduled the update.
 * Go figure! 🤷
