Recursive loop logging in

I facing similar issue but i am able to login as usual.

See my topic
here

If you found out the issue please let me know.

So you are on this page, https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.10degreeslatitude.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1 and logging in brings you back to the same page?

@kmessginger – yes, if I am at https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.10degreeslatitude.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1 it recursively returns me back to that page even when using correct login/password. I’ve tried on cache clear browsers and different browsers and iphone – same result. Also none of the page or post links work. I’ve copied the new WordPress version over the top, and the issue is the same.

Have you tried:
-deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
-switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

You can do this with FTP or by logging into your hosting account and using the file manager. Rename the plugins folder, plugins-old. Rename your theme to paalam-old and WP should open with the default theme.

I’ll try that now.

Ok, I tried that and now the screen is blank on the website and the same recursive login issue remains.

Try to renaming .htaccess file (located in the root) to something like .htaccess-bak temporary and retry. If that works, the culprit is your .htaccess and you need to create a fresh copy of .htaccess manually.

Ok, I deleted my .htaccess file and recreated with contents below, but it didn’t work.

# BEGIN WordPress

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

# END WordPress

Notice how when you go to https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-admin it auto redirects to https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.10degreeslatitude.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1. I think that’s the problem.

That happens even though you enter correct username and password. Am I correct?

@dipak, yes.

Are you guys able to get https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-admin to register in the URL bar, or does it change to this url once you click enter?

https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.10degreeslatitude.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

@nmueller1, that’s normal with any WordPress site when you try to access WP Admin with https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-admin. Try https://www.10degreeslatitude.com/wp-login.php instead and it will open the same page without any redirect in URL.

The problem here with you is it won’t allow you to login (redirect loop issue) even though you enter the correct usename and password. Confirm please.
