Permalinks not allowing me to login to wp-admin

  • Hey I have a weird problem, I’ve searched everywhere and still nothing. I have change my permalinks structure to category/post/ and it works perfectly. So after I change it I update my htacess file (have tried letting wordpress do it, and manual) and everything works fine for about 5 mins. Then whenever i try to login to mysite.com/wp-admin I get a 404 error (all other pages work perfectly), the only way to fix this is deleting my htacess file and creating a new one from scratch. When I do it over again it only works for about 5 mins again, see my problem?

    Heres my htacess file, is there a extra rule I need to write in or something, help!

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    Now heres what I think is wrong: does wordpress think that wp-admin is a category and when it cant find it gives me that 404 error? Please this is really causing me great headache, if you guys have a solution please chime..

  • try adding this line to top

    Option +FollowSymlinks

    before wordpress starts

    What url is in the browser address bar when you get this 404?

    Have you tried using mysite.com/wp-login.php?

    Neither one of the these worked. My url is mysite.com/wp-admin…

    When I type the Option+FollowSymlinks it just gives all my link 505 error

    yeah this has randomly happened to me too. Not sure when/how it happened. HipHopRookies you figure out what happened?
