Occasional 'This webpage has a redirect loop.' errors (8 posts)

    Hola -

    We came over from 3.01, multiple installs to a single wpmu 3.04 installation, and ever since have since these errors:

    apache: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error

    browser: The webpage at http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/drexelsocialscienceslib/ has resulted in too many redirects. (or similar errors)

    Usually reloading will allow you to get to the page. It is intermittent, but I have not been able to determine any pattern to it yet.

    htaccess is as wpmu suggested, see at http://pastebin.com/mbpazpCa

    Many thanks for any assistance here.

    Bump up the redirect limit on the server.
    Disable all your plugins to eliminate them.

    Otherwise, stab in the dark guessing here without more info.

    Were those sites on different domains? Did you use the domain mapping plugin to add them or just edit the site names & URLs?

    @Andrea_r I am using the domain mapping pluging. If I set http://inspiredbylife.ilocals.info as the primary domain and click on http://INSPIREDBYLIFE.ME then http://INSPIREDBYLIFE.ME redirects to http://inspiredbylife.ilocals.info.

    But if I set http://INSPIREDBYLIFE.ME as the primary domain the I get the redirect error. I have cleared cache and cookies. Nothing works.

    I am not sure what you mean by:

    Bump up the redirect limit on the server. and Disable all your plugins to eliminate them.

    Are these two sentences related? :?)

    You lost me here. WHICH one did you set to the primary domain? "Primary domain" means this is the URL I want to be the official address for this blog and all others will get redirected to this.

    And if you;re trying to map the subdomain (original address) as the primary... yeah, that's not gonna work. Do not fill in the exisiting address.

    I am not sure what you mean by:

    Bump up the redirect limit on the server. and Disable all your plugins to eliminate them.

    no. they are two separate thing.

    Disable your plugins to eliminate them as being a possible issue. It;s a standard troubleshooting technique.

    @Andrea_r

    Thanks for taking the time to comment on my question. Apologies for the confusion. Your time is really appreciated.

    Thanks for the clarification on the plugins. I have deactivated all of them, other than those must use. I suppose I'll should remove them as well.

    WHICH one did you set to the primary domain?

    I have set http://INSPIREDBYLIFE.ME as the primary domain.

    Here's a list of "must use" plugins that are still active:

    AutoBlog
    Remove WPMU remote calls
    Update Notifications
    WPMU Blog Registrations
    XML Sitemap Feed
    WPMU Blog Registrations

    I have asked my very helpful host, Hostagtor, for advice as well. This is what they had to say -to date:

    it does appear that these broken redirects are created by wordpress:
    ====================================
    [root@gator67 /home/johanhor/public_html/ilocals]# cat .htaccess
    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [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
    ========================================

    Hi My problem was sorted. I had the original and the pro version of the domain mapping plugin active.

    Doh, yeah - don't run two plugins at the same time that do the same thing. ;)

    I noticed you didn't list either of them as being in the mu-plugins folder.
