Hi,
There is an issue in the rewrite test that this plugin does to see if that is configured. I do use nginx as webserver and I suspect that it has got something to do with that but for me what worked was comment out the rewrite test the plugin does when you click on ‘Performance’ section.
searh/change the if statement in this file:
./wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/lib/W3/Plugin/TotalCache.php
if (!$this->test_rewrite_pgcache()) {
should be this to skip the pagecache rewrite check:
if (1==0) {
If you mod that the page will load directly.
