 * Hi [@cosmoweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cosmoweb/)
    hmm, can you give
   me the full log? Also, I think it’s just a warning because db.php is not a WordPress
   core file and was generated by another plugin, maybe its query monitor plugin:

 * [@cosmoweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cosmoweb/) and [@duongcuong96](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duongcuong96/)
 * Just reporting the same behavior here for your reference.
 * I received the following warning:
    WARNING: Link “/home/xxxx/public_html/xxxx/
   wp-content/db.php” not following.
 * Then deactivated Query Monitor as [@cosmoweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cosmoweb/)
   did, ran job again, warning went away.
