 * Check your .htaccess file. There is probably a bit of code that works on a demo
   version of the site but not on the live one.
 * Just try commenting out everything that isn’t WordPress generated.

 * Many hosts experienced problems due to [ mass attacks](http://blog.hostgator.com/2013/04/11/global-wordpress-brute-force-flood/)
   recently and temporarily disabled access to wp-admin and/or wp-login.php as a
   result. Your hosts may be one of them. Try contacting them about it.

 * Nginx doesn’t parse .htaccess file.

 * Please post your Nginx configuration to see, if everything is okay in it.
