with site move server 500 related to wordfence-waf.php
-
1. I have moved my newly built website from dev.birtafoto.hu (folder websites/dev.birtafoto.hu) to birtafoto.hu (folder public_html).
2. As usual, I have replaced the URLs, I have used velvet URL plugin.
3. changed the site name, site url in the wp_options table
When I try to get rid of (or just rename) the old folder of the website (/websites/dev.birtafoto.hu) the site crashes with a server 500 error.It turns out that the old wordfence-waf.php file causing the issue.
I have removed wordfence plugin from the site at its new place – dropping all db tables as well. but the problem still exists.I have done what you have suggesting on other threads:
edited .htaccess with this code:# Wordfence WAF <Files ".user.ini"> <IfModule mod_authz_core.c> Require all denied </IfModule> <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c> Order deny,allow Deny from all </IfModule> </Files> # END Wordfence WAF
i have edited user.ini:
; Wordfence WAF
auto_prepend_file = ‘/mysite/wordfence-waf.php’
; END Wordfence WAFinterestingly the wordfence with the new install with new tables still pointed to the old url in the user.ini and the wordfence-waf.php files (I have corrected this as well). why is that?
but no matter I have corrected the paths the problem still persists.how can I get rid of the old wordfence-waf file at the old folder? That is the one which is causing the hwole issue.
Thanks for your help.
