    What do you have for the WordPress and Site URLs in the Dashboard settings?

    Hi Matt, thanks for the reply.

    The problem is, I can’t even log into the Dashboard. It is a brand new installation of WordPress and I have not been able to access the Dashboard area at all yet due to this issue.

    Hi I have tried what you said – thank you.

    I deleted all files and uploaded again and getting the same message.

    As before, I can access wp-login.php but not wp-admin, and after log-in it brings up 404 error.

    Do you have access to phpMyAdmin so you can check the values in the database and correct if necessary?

    I would like to thank everyone that replied to my post.

    I have renamed original .htaccess file to ‘.htaccess_OLD’ and created a new one with the following details:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress

    It has fixed my issue and I can finally access the Dashboard.
