§ WordPress Troubleshooting: WordPress Admin Area (Dashboard) Redirect Loop
Yesterday, I helped one of my clients with her WordPress-powered blogs. When I tried to find the solution — using search engines — I could not find any exact solution.
Problem overview
Okey, here’s the problem: When I tried to login to WordPress dashboard — not WordPress.com, but self-hosted — I always got these errors:
Redirect Loop
The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site is redirecting the request in a way that will never complete.The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site is redirecting the request in a way that will never complete.
- Have you disabled or blocked cookies required by this site?
- NOTE: If accepting the site’s cookies does not resolve the problem, it is likely a server configuration issue and not your computer.
I’m not sure what caused this problem. I thought it was my browser (Firefox), but I got the same problem on other browsers.
