REST API Problem
-
The Yoast Plugin has a problem with my site.
I opened a support on the Yoast forum and they told me it’s a REST issue.
They gave me this answer:
The configuration wizard relies on a built-in WordPress tool called the REST API. Per the screenshot, this tool is returning to 404 Not Found which means that either the core files are missing or your site / server has disabled the REST API.
The REST API in it’s most basic state should return information about your site like it does for this site: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/wp-json/
Your site returns The requested URL was not found on this server.
Log: I did it and the plugin keeps showing error.See the error log: https://www.dropbox.com/s/p0kuv48atf1zpsu/log.png?dl=0
Can you help me?

This is a problem of cache (your server, load balancing, reverse proxy and/or your plugin have copy of page with pretty Permalink, but your htaccess is missing now).
If you are using non-pretty permalinks, you should pass the REST API route as a query string parameter. The route http://oursite.com/wp-json/ in the example above would hence be http://oursite.com/?rest_route=/
Set your missing .htaccess and it work 😉
Pretty PermalinkThe configuration wizard relies on a built-in WordPress tool called the REST API. Per the screenshot, this tool is returning to 404 Not Found which means that either the core files are missing or your site / server has disabled the REST API.
There are several reasons when a status code other than http 200 comes out, the 404 code often indicates incorrect request in this case forward this technical advice, yoast if it meets a 404 with all methods and indicates if it is a
problem of http://oursite.com/index.php/wp-json/ PATHINFO (Almost Pretty), http://oursite.com/index.php/wp-json/ .htaccess (Pretty Permalink) or http://oursite.com/?rest_ruote=/ query string (Ugly).
