# wp-admin redirect loop with FORCE_SSL_ADMIN

 * Hi, I added
    define(‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, true); in wp-config.php and then I became
   unable to access /wp-admin and found that the system is causing redirect loop.
   If I put /wp-admin/index.php in the URL it works though. If I comment out the
   FORCE_SSL_ADMIN line in wp-config.php, the problem does not occur. How can I 
   enable FORCE_SSL_ADMIN without this strange problem? Thanks in advance.
