 * i changed the name of the jetpack’s plugin folder on the remote server via FTP
   and then I was able to log in. I tried a lot of things, but finally opted to 
   remove Jetpack completely from the remote server via FTP. And then I installed
   and activated. The site seems to be working again. ONe thing I think is a possibility:
   maybe Jetpack got corrupted somehow because of a conflict with Braintree? One
   of the things I did before I re-installed/activated Jetpack was disable Braintree.
   I will be trying to get Braintree back running again later this week. If JetPack
   goes south again after Braintree is running, I will return here to report that
   to you.
 * Sorry, just now saw James’ question: Woocommerce 4.4.0.

 * Same error here.

 * Had to delete jetpack from 3 sites that also run WooCommerce.
    WP 5.5 JetPack
   8.8.2 WooCommerce 4.4.0

 * deleted jetpack.
    We use svn to maintain plugins and turn off WordPress updates,
   as the latter are insecure. Our webserver does not have permission to update 
   PHP directories. Created jetpack directory with new `svn co` command restarted
   php7.3-fpm to reset OPCache
 * got message to update WooCommerce database at this point.
 * Possibly all this triggered by update to WP 5.5 in the last 24 hours.

 * I have run into the same issue that jetpack is crashing my site and not sure 
   how to fix as I use jetpack for some woocommerce.com services, so I have to have
   jetpack…tried some backup restores, but jetpack still does not work

    did you try deleting
   jetpack, then using your cPanel or whatever to restart your server? Then reinstall
   jetpack.

 * I am having the same issue. I have tried uninstalling the plugin via FTP and 
   reinstalling and am unable to active or delete it via the wordpress dashboard.
   I am getting the same error. Hopefully there will be a fix soon.

 * [@nikdow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikdow/) yes I have renamed the
   jetpack folder to get the site to work again, have tried adding jetpack, but 
   will not activate due to the fatal error…have deleted from the server and tried
   installing and activating and every time I get the fatal error message.

 * [@pdesignz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pdesignz/) sounds like the step
   you might be missing is to restart the webserver, while jetpack is deleted. This
   will remove it from various caches.

 * [@nikdow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikdow/) I also tried uploading
   a zip of the plugin and when I try and activate this is the error I get, Fatal

 * My website crashed after auto-update of Woocomerce to version 4.4.0.
    After that,
   i had run the auto recovery mode, downgraded Woocomerce, but when i was trying
   to activate Jetpack plugin
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare Automattic\Jetpack\Autoloader\enqueue_packages_59b2271d25a961ec5100b6f811b89e89()(

   autoload_packages.php:183) in /home/…./public_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/
   vendor/autoload_packages.php on line 183
 * Also, its imposible to delete Jetpack plugin.
    Probably error is between new 
   Woocomerce and Jetpack?
