I’m getting the same thing—a WordPress 404. I’ve never used the W3 Total Cache plugin. It was working fine until two days ago when I updated from 4.something to 1.0.1.

Any other reasons? Thanks.

I meant upgraded from 0.4.something….

If you have an Nginx server, remove any rules applied to the robots.txt and it might work! It worked for me!

After removing robots.txt rules, after rebooting the server, I got the error again! So, I tried this :

In W3Total Cache, under Browser Cache, try to disable “Set W3 Total Cache header” for HTML & XML and then restart Nginx and try again! It worked for me ??

Hi Pepperbase, you’ve got it working correct now. Can you tell us how you solved your problem?
