Continuous redirects to /wp-admin/&reauth=1

You can’t.

You cannot put WordPress in a folder and run it so the blogs do not show that folder name in the URL.

Bah, that sucks. I was always able to do so when it was still ‘wpmu’ and some of my single blogs also work like that. Too bad though, I’ll have to find another way.

I was always able to do so when it was still ‘wpmu’

To my knowledge it was never possible. it interferes with the blog lookup.

Well I have an old wpmu setup (that I was trying to move to the new version) that still runs smoothly. As long as you setup a htaccess rule that looks up the right folder when people access the main domain everything works, but it looks like the multisite installation now looks up the folder on a server level, which will always include the folder.

I’ll try and find a fix, but in the meantime I’m just sticking with my old wpmu installation.

I am having a similar problem to the original poster (continuous redirects to /wp-admin/&reauth=1). My server timed out during an upgrade from 2.9.2 to 3.0.1 using the WPAU plugin and never completed some procedure.

My website is waitiki7.com; the admin panel should be located at waitiki7.com/W7/wp-admin; and my host is ApolloHosting, running PHP 5.2.12 and MySQL 5.0.45. [I cross-posted this to How To/Troubleshooting since this installation runs only one site and is therefore not necessarily a multisite problem.]

So far I have done the following things:
1. Backed up
2. Replaced core files—completely deleting old ones before uploading the new (3.0.1)
3. Deactivated plugins folder
4. CHMOD’d /wp-admin/, /wp-content/, and /wp-includes/ to 755
5. Deleted my .htaccess file
6. Cleared my browser caches…
7. Going into phpMyAdmin to verifying that siteurl within the MySQL table wp_options is correct. (It was)
8. Adding the lines

update_option('siteurl','https://waitiki7.com/W7');
update_option('home','https://waitiki7.com/');

to wp-config.php —nothing happened, so I deleted them again.
9. Deleted install.php from the /wp-admin/ directory.

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. I’ve been reading forums for hours now and have not come across a solution.

Many, many thanks in advance.

Hi

I applied 755 to wp-admin, wp-include, wp-content

I can login to wp-admin on main site but not into any domain mapped child sites?
Is this a WPMU upgrade error??? any help. i cannot login to my child sites for 8 days !!!!
Any help greatly appreciated.

It;s not wpmu. If you say you’re running wpmu, then us mods will assume you are using 2.9.2 or earlier. Are you?

And please…. start a new thread with your own specific issues.

If you are using “Member” plugin by Justin Tadlock make sure you’ve unchecked the “Private Blog” option.
