Redirect loop on certain pages

  • Hello,
    I am trying to repair a site that used your plugin to redirect pages at various stages of a payment process. They have since tried to reroute the payments and so I removed the urls from the plugin settings page. Unfortuantely the redirect seems to be stuck and I can no longer access the homepage or the registration page of the site (I get an infinite loop message. )

    I have tried the following:

    • deactivating the plugin
    • refreshing the permalinks
    • clearing and resetting the htaccess
    • defining the home and site url in wp-config
    • deleting the rewrite rules in the options table

    The only two pages affected are the home page and the registration page. I haven’t yet deleted any tales from the database.

  • I’m like a dog with a bone on this stuff ??

    Definitely try deactivating Yoast.

    Wierd Now I’m getting a 500 error.
    After deactivating Yoast.

    I have to admit it is a pretty juicy bone ??

    It does follow that if the previous configuration did not follow all the subdirectory install steps then someone may have tried to use this plugin to compensate.

    Confirmed
    Yoast activaed = 301
    Yoast deactivated = 500

    I’m going to go look in the server log and see if I can find the error.

    I think the compensation had to do with the checkout flow or something. It was definately there as a fix for something that should have been fixed otherwise.

    The errors only affect the homepage and register pages it seems.

    Double-check each htaccess again.

    Ok
    newdirectory 

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /newdirectory/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /newdirectory/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

    root

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

# END WordPress

    Progress. That’s definitely a server issue and not WordPress. Check file permissions.

    104 Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: ap_pass_brigade failed in handle_request_ipc function…

    Not sure what to do about it though.

    Ask your web host tech support.

    Ah, yes I read that yesterday and tried everything and ended up contacting the hosting provider who told me there were lots of errors to fix. -godaddy ??

    I found this though:
    This is a PHP-FCGI limit error you’re receiving. You’ll need to adjust either the “PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS” variable inside the “fcgi-bin/php5.fcgi” file for the domain or “FcgidMaxRequestsPerProcess” variable inside the Apache config file.

    Good idea.
    This is out of my league anyway. Thanks a million for your help Chris. I’ll let you know how it all went.

    You’re welcome. Please do.

    Hi Chris, just thought I’d let you know that its fixed. ??

    The server support was amazingly unhelpful and told me that I shouldn’t be putting the install in a subdirectory. Also that WordPress code is complicated. The 104 error turned out to be a server timed-out sort of thing.

    There are a couple of issues going on with the theme that compounded the problem but there also appears to be some caching done via wp-config (so your idea was a good one.) There is a cache folder in wp_content in addition to a file named advanced-cache.php. So apparently I was wrong when I said there was no cache.

    Anyway many thanks again for your help yesterday.

    That’s good news! Thanks for the update.
