Unable to access Network Admin dashboard

Hi,

Make sure you had made changes in wp-config.php for the path and in the options tables of all network websites.

define( ‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true );
define(‘MULTISITE’, true);
define(‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, true);
define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘yousiteurl’);
define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’);
define(‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1);
define(‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1);

eg:

wp_options
wp_1_options
wp_2_options and so on…

And also there is one more table in which you have to make the change

wp_site

In this table you will have to change the value of the domain and its path.

Please let me know if it works for you.

Thanks

Clarion Technologies, thank you so much for your reply. I have just realized I posted in the wrong topic! I will try your suggestions, but I think I may need to move my request to another topic.

Thank you!

Hello,

i have the same problem, i have migrated a multisite that i created on localhost to ovh. I have followed in detail what is indicated on the web. I have full access to my two websites administration and they work well but i cannot access the dashboard of the network. When i click on “sites” on the top left i see only the main site and if i go into the network administration menu and clic on any item it tells me that the page was not redirected correctly. Idem if i try to access directly the /network/ directory which is in wp-admin.

All this is working ok on my local host.

can somebody help?

Hi,

Had you made changes in wp-config and all the database tables mentioned above in this post?

hello, yes i did both the wp congif and ht access files modifications
for the database i used Search-Replace-DB-master as recommended on the web. I tried also to update to wordpress 4.5.2 and it tried to access to the /network/ directory but does not seem to find it although it is in place in wp-admin.

Hi,

Had you made change in this table “wp_site”.

This table contains only domain name without http and folder path.

When you search replace the links with http are replace and the links without http are not replaced.

I recommend you to check wp_site once more manually.

Thanks

Hello, i checked ww_site, in the domain box i have only the domain name calligrafee.com and in the path box i have a /

thanks for your help

i removed the / from the path box but no change

thanks

what i suspect is that i did not desactivate the plugins from both sites and network before transferring from localhost to ovh. I tried to desactivate them afterwards but it did change nothing. I looked in the tables of the database corresponding to the plugins but i see nothing wrong. I have tables for 404 to 301 and statpress.

br, ms

Hi,

If you have done wp-config changes and all site url changes in database and still the network admin is not working then it is very hard to tell why it is not working without having a look at the website.

The last thing I would recommend is check your rewrite base in .htacess file and path in wp-config.php and ww_site table. in both places the path must be same.

And yes previously I had forgot to mention there is also two more table ww_sitemeta and ww_blog. In ww_sitemeta table also check the value of “siteurl” and in ww_blog check the values of “domain” and “path”.

Please let me know if it works for your now.

Thanks

Hello, here is my .htaccess:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

here is my wp_config:

/* Multisite */
define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
define(‘MULTISITE’, true);
define(‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false);
define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘www.calligrafee.com’);
define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’);
define(‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1);
define(‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1);
define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://www.calligrafee.com&#8217;);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://www.calligrafee.com&#8217;);

in wp_site i have domain: calligrafee.com path: /

in wp_sitemeta i have site_name réseau calligrafee, siteurl : https://www.calligrafee.com

in wp_blog i have two lines for my two blogs with id 1 and 3 respectively (no id 2):
domain: calligrafee.com path:/
domain calligrafee.com path /en/

can this help? thanks

Hi,

Your htaccess and wp-config.php files seems to be fine.

I have just noticed that on some table your site URL contains www and in some it does not.

In one of the old multi-network site I had face similar issue because of the www parameter.

I would suggest you to make the following changes and see if it works. Please do take a database backup first.

In wp_site table set the domain value to https://www.calligrafee.com

And in wp_blog set domain for blogs with id 1 and 3 to https://www.calligrafee.com and https://www.calligrafee.com

Also comment out the following lines in the wp-config.php files as they are no longer needed.

define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://www.calligrafee.com&#8217;);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://www.calligrafee.com&#8217;);

Please let me know if you problem is solved now.

Thanks

Thank you, Clarion, for all your help! I decided to erase the whole thing and start over from scratch. It seemed to be easier that way.

Hi,

Yes that would be better.

Thanks

I am having the same issue. I can log into my my multi site fine but when i try and access network admin it prompts me to login and it keeps going around in circles. Need assistance please.
