WP login page blank, 500 server error after install

  • After installing Fixer and setting it, I tested the site and it loads properly. However, I logged out and now cannot log in again. Upon redirect to secure page, I get either a blank window (Safari) or a 500 configuration error (Chrome).

    I tried adding this code to wp-config, define(‘SSLFIX_PLUGIN_NO_HTTPS_DETECT’, true); but it didn’t work.

    Disabled all plugins, but of course that didn’t help.

    I’m locked out of my web site; can’t edit or add content. Suggestions to get access back?

  • I am in same trouble and problem after I’ve changed the HTTPS detection settings. I’ve tried all above mentioned possibilities but anyway I couldn’t login to my admin panel.

    Can you tell me please what you changed the HTTPS detection settings to?

    @grtgrfx your site is set to force all requests to https, so disabling the plugin’s HTTPS detection won’t fix your problem.

    Please add this snippet to your wp-config.php file, above the lines defining ABSPATH:

    if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO']) && $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] === 'https') {
	$_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on';
}

    That will do what the plugin does for X-Forward-Proto header detection. If you had selected a different fix for HTTPS detection, the code will need to be different.

    cheers,
    Ross
