 * For the people googling around and resulting in this page:
 * steps I’ve done:
    -reinstalling WordPress via SFTP (using another table_prefix
   in wp_config.conf) -recovering my posts from a previous data-export via tools-
   > data export (import via tools -> data import) -increasing the php.ini memory_limit
   value to 256M (even if 64M should work too) -cleaning the servers .htaccess of
   all stuff not inside `# BEGIN WordPress` and `# END WordPress`
 * Hope this will help you even if I can’t say which action was it to make it work
   2 days later…

 * I manually reinstalled WordPress by deleting the SQL, deleting the WordPress 
   files via SFTP and then re-uploading the default wordpress files with a new configured
   wp_config.php – so everything should be set to default settings and default plugins.
   
   If I upload an XML backup of all the posts I’ve written before the error appears
   again. So I think plugins and settings problems are already checked as the error
   appears in a completely stock WordPress environment only having a recovery of
   the blogposts…
 * For my previous tries (personal data has been hidden):
    “[Mon Jul 11 14:20:57
   2016] [alert] [client $CLIENT] /var/www/virtual/$USER/html/.htaccess: Option 
   All not allowed here, referer: [https://$DOMAIN/wp-admin/plugin-install.php?tab=search&s=broken+link&#8221](https://$DOMAIN/wp-admin/plugin-install.php?tab=search&s=broken+link&#8221);
 * The .htaccess only consists of WPs default entries and an addition to redirect
   every http call to https. and some redirection rules to redirect some other permalink
   structures to /%postname%
 * All of the sudden, it somehow works now – without ever doing something additional…
   Strange…

 * Thanks for the help. Worked like a charm.
 * Google Authenticator Data isn’t grabbed by ADB (android developer tool) if you
   create and restore backups of the android-apps, so I got into this problem that
   way.
