    hi,
    a few hours ago I was messing with my .htaccess, then when I tried to go to my website or wordpress dashboard i was getting following error!
    ” The webpage at http://domain.com/wp-admin/install.php has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.”
    then I searched google then edit my .htaccess, now when I type my domain i end up to http://domain.com/wp-admin/install.php, I am not sure but I think I have messed up my .htaccess, I even cannt access my WP dash! what should I do to be directed to my blog?
    thanks in advance

    ps. I am noob so please be more specefic

    Try replacing the current contents of your .htaccess file with:

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

# END WordPress

    there is two .htaccess, one in public_html and other in wp_admin I edited both to what you said, again same problem!
    when i type mydomain.com to goes to http://mydomain.com/wp-admin/install.php and when i visit other pages like contact page it gives
    “The webpage at http://jerkhost.com/wp-admin/install.php has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.”

    Remove the .htaccess file from your wp-admin folder.

    thanks alot, but still same problem, you can check it here http://www.jerkhost.com, is it possible that the problem is somewhere else?

    It’s always possible. Try:
    – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin.

    NOPE, nothing! is there anything else that I can try? should I call my hosting provider?

    I think it would help at this point. They may be able to pinpoint where the redirection is coming from.
