 * Greetings,
 * Yesterday I have updated a theme, but after that I could reach wp-admin normal
   way, I got redirected to this:
 * [http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mysite.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1](http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mysite.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1)
 * I tried to recover a back-up of 1 day ago and the same problem showed up.
 * I tried a clean install without any themes or plugin other that the default ones
   that come with the installation of WordPress. Same problem.
 * Removed cache from my computer, tried 2 browsers and have tried to login on different
   computer. Same problem.
 * Help please, thanks in advance.

 * That is an expected behavior.
 * [http://www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yoursite.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1](http://www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yoursite.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1)
 * Does that not go to your logon?

 * No plugins, just a default WordPress theme that comes with the installation.
 * Not configured MyPHP / MySQL
 * Not configured WP-Config

 * Have no idea how to solve this

 * > after that I could reach wp-admin normal way,
 * That is the normal way. That is correct behavior for WordPress. When you enter
   [http://www.woonstip.nl/wp-admin](http://www.woonstip.nl/wp-admin) it will take
   you to the above url. It has worded this way for many years.
 * If you do not want the redirect, you can enter [http://www.woonstip.nl/wp-login.php](http://www.woonstip.nl/wp-login.php)

 * @kmessinge: I am kinda new to WordPress but i always thought it was domain/wp-
   admin…
 * Guess i was blinded all this time, case closed than.
 * Thank you for your time. Kind regards,
    Ivo
