We are aware of an issue with WooCommerce 9.8.3 that is resulting in fatal errors on a number of sites. The WooCommerce Team is working on a fix and release to resolve this. We will update this post as this progresses.

Rolling back to 9.8.2 may help, but we are seeing mixed results.

13:18 UTC-0: A temporary fix for this issue can be found here. If you need assistance applying this to your site, please let us know. A permanent fix will be issued by the WooCommerce Team as soon as possible.

13:40 UTC-0: The temporary fix noted above is working well to resolve this on affected sites. It is recommended that you apply this while awaiting the permanent fix. Please reach out to our Support Team if you need assistance with this.
