Constant loop between /wordpress and /root category after update (7 posts)

    Hello.

    I'm trying to publish a wordpress blog that I've built for a client and I'm having a problem after updating from WP 2.2 to WP 2.6.
    The blog worked fine when I first installed on the server (hosted by: XO), but after updating it to 2.6 (with Wordpress Automatic Upgrade) only the adminpanel works.
    When I try to access the blog through http://www.rosenworld.com/wordpress I think it's pointing back to the root, http://www.rosenworld.com, which is META-refreshed back to http://www.rosenworld.com/wordpress/index.php putting me in a constant loop.

    Anyone who knows what the problem might be?

    It's probably something very simple, but I'm kind of new to WP and the whole database thing so please be patient with me.

    What do you have for the site-url parameters on the Settings->General screen? Those values must be set correctly.

    Otto:

    Both WordPress and Blog Adress are set for http://rosenworld.com/wordpress so that should be correct right?

    My best guess is that there's a problem with either my index.php or the .htaccess within my wordpress directory.
    Could anyone give me a hint on how those should look if my root is a directory called /web and wordpress is in a folder called /web/wordpress?

    Well, it's hard to say. What's in those .htaccess files right now?
