    So i tried to do an install today of the newest version of wordpress and got some odd results.

    1. it auto detected my URL wrong it was http://mydomain?step=2 instead of http://mydomain/wordpress

    I cleaned this up in the db by hand and changed all the entries i could find with this. This fixed the admin and css issues.

    2. When i try to go to http://mydomain/wordpress i just get redirected to my webroot (http://mydomain/) i can’t seem to get to my wordpress front page at all.

    I looked in my config.php looks fine. Again I searched the db and all the references to mydomain path looked right. I also did a grep on my wordpress folder and didn’t see mydomain in any of my files.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    In admin settings – are both uri’s the same value?

    yes both those values are set correctly. The installer didn’t detect them right so I fixed them manually. I’m wondering if something in my server variables is coming through wrong. Did a back trace and its getting redirected wrongly by the connical_redirect method. Is there a way to just disable this set of features? honestly i don’t care if spiders see mydomain.com and http://www.mydomain.com as two diff sites lol.

    I’ve had this problem today as well, and I’ve been driving myself crazy trying to solve it … still no luck. It’s funny since only the front page is afflicted. I tried making making sure that index.php is the default directory page in the .htaccess file, but that didn’t work. I hope you fix it!
