Activating Wordfence blocks localhost on test server

    I activated Wordfence yesterday after updating all plugins and when I refreshed my page, found the “Problem loading page” page. At this point that is all I get.

    I closed all tabs, refreshed the browser cache and restarted the browser (Firefox). Received the login page. Entered my credentials and was blocked by the same page.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    Additional Information:

    For the time being, I deleted the wordpress\htdocs\wp-content\wflogs folder in order to allow access and have temporarily disabled Wordfence, at least until such time that a solution can be found.

    Hi @tfranklinh!

    It sounds like you may have encountered a server error? I would recommend you look at your sites PHP error logs to see if you can find a more specific error message there.

    If you do not have access to your sites PHP error logs you can enable debug mode in WordPress. You can find more information about how to do that here.

    Let me know how it goes!
