Title: Admin redirect loop Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Admin redirect loop * Resolved [TKOWebguy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tkowebguy/) * (@tkowebguy) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-redirtect-loop/) * So, as of this morning, I’m getting an admin login redirect loop. I’ve integrated WordPress with my Magento site. The error details I get in Chrome are “The webpage at [http://tkovapor.com/blog/wp-admin/](http://tkovapor.com/blog/wp-admin/) has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer. Learn more about this problem. Error code: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS” * The error I see in Firefox is “The page isn’t redirecting properly * Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. * This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.” * I have NOT disabled cookies or anything like that. I contacted my hosting, and they can’t figure out what’s going on yet on there end, if anything. * All of the regular live pages that I created in WordPress display just fine, although they are using the Magento theme now (when before, they weren’t). For instance, [http://tkovapor.com/blog/breaking-down-ohms-law/](http://tkovapor.com/blog/breaking-down-ohms-law/) * I didn’t change any settings. I logged into the admin yesterday just fine. I have the Fishpig WordPress integration extension installed in Magento. When I try to do a log in directly from Magento, I get this error. “WordPress Auto Login Failed: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 19:02:34 GMT Server: Apache/ 2.2.23 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.23 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 DAV/2 mod_auth_passthrough/ 2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.17 Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52: 00 GMT Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre- check=0 Pragma: no-cache Set-Cookie: frontend=5bc88bd4737c623393986c46b700f0cc; expires=Fri, 20-Feb-2015 20:02:34 GMT; path=/; domain=tkovapor.com; HttpOnly Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8” * As I’m more of a front end guy, not a programmer, I don’t know what this is telling me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In fact, that put a 404 error on all pages. So, when I turned it back on, all of the live pages then worked again. * From the thread you referenced, the .htaccess file is set up correctly. Again, I didn’t change anything between it working last night, and not today. I also tried the added code suggestion for the fishpig_wordpress_helper_system, didn’t help. * I’ll look at the plugins/themes/core, let you know if I find anything. * Thread Starter [TKOWebguy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tkowebguy/) * (@tkowebguy) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-redirtect-loop/#post-5815015) * I did re-upload a clean version of the wp-admin folder, too. * [bernbe01](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bernbe01/) * (@bernbe01) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-redirtect-loop/#post-5815018) * if you think you may have a corruption you’ll need to do more than just the wp- admin folder * 0. take a backup of your existing system * 1. download the latest wordpress * 2. unzip it locally on your computer * 3. connect to your server using an ftp client, selecting option to see hidden files if available * 4. delete from your server everything in wordpress’s install folder except wp- config.php and wp-content/ * 5. upload from the newly unzipped wordpress files all files and folders except wp-content/ (there will not be a wp-config.php in the newly unzip wordpress) * Thread Starter [TKOWebguy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tkowebguy/) * (@tkowebguy) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-redirtect-loop/#post-5815047) * I think that did it. Not sure what was wrong, but after deleting and reuploading WP, it appears to be working again (although it’s asking to update the database). Thanks for the suggestions! * Thread Starter [TKOWebguy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tkowebguy/) * (@tkowebguy) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-redirtect-loop/#post-5815048) * I’ll mark as resolved. * [bernbe01](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bernbe01/) * (@bernbe01) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-redirtect-loop/#post-5815054) * No problem!

I am just trying to log in to WordPress.org to edit my site, just like I always do. I have cleaned up my history, cache, etc., and haven’t even touched cookies. Help me please!!!
