# Redirect loop in ,,,/wp-admin

 * We recently moved a website from a Godaddy multi-host to a linux dedicacted server.
   
   The site migration itself went ok, the website works fine (for a normal visitor
   at least). However, the login to the wordpress admin (website.com/wp-admin) has
   a redirect loop. The error is the following: Firefox: The page isn’t redirecting
   properly Chrome: This webpage has a redirect loop
 * When surfing to website.com/wp-login.php the login screens shows as it should.
   I can log on but when I do so it redirects me to website.com/wp-admin which has
   the redirect problem again.
 * So it is impossible to get to the wordpress backend.
    I did some research and
   found several solutions to this problem, however none of these actually helped.
   FYI, these are the solutions we tried so far:
 * * disabling all plugins
    * removing/editing htaccess file * permalink clean up
   in the database * contacting the host but they say it’s because of a problem 
   of the website, not because of their server. * migrating the backup again (same
   result) * replacing all wordpress files/folders (except wp-content)
 * I am without options now. Anyone has experienced this issue???

 * Have you checked to make sure that both the URLs (siteurl and home) in the database
   match perfectly? If they’re different, it can cause this issue.
 * Can you also post a link to the site here?
 * Thanks!
