Welcome to the forums

Can you set $debug = 2; in conf/_advanced.php, line 35. This will display a lot of useful information about your redirects.

Please report back when you do this so I can take a look, or make a screenshot

sam2kb,

Same result. No difference.

Any other suggestions?

There won't be any difference.
$debug = 2; doesn't fix the problem, but it lets you find the reason why infinite redirect happens.

BTW do you use make redirects with .htaccess ?

Hi,

I am new to this and have the same problem as asked previously:

Safari can’t open the page.
Too many redirects occurred trying to open etc etc.

The last person did not appear to follow up but perhaps you might be able to direct me a little. I have loaded b2evo with a 'ONE CLICK' install via my host 123-reg.co.uk. It all loaded successfully and I can see and use the admin section but when I try and 'see' a 'Public View' I am getting the redirect problem in all browsers.

Have tried uninstalling and then upgrading to the latest version but the same problem re-occurs. I would really appreciate any advice you can give especially if a novice like me could understand it.

Thanks

Can you post a link to your blog?

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I will post a link but first must load it again. (The host company had suggested that in the meantime)

I will let you know when I have done it.

OK - here is a link at last:

Thanks

See if you have a .htaccess file in your website and/or blog directory. Rename these files and check the blog again.

You should also do the following

There is a file called sample.htaccess in the blog folder. I did rename this on a previous install to just .htaccess as another forum entry suggested and it disappeared. Is there something else I should specifically name it please?

OK - I have renamed the file to just .htaccess and set the conf file to = 2

Still the same problem.

I did look into the htaccess file and noted that at the bottom it says this:

# Redirect anything that's not an existing directory or file to index.php:
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
#RewriteRule ^ index.php

Any more help you can give would be very much appreciated and I apologise if i am being stupid but I am new to this.

Thanks again.

Just for kicks, do you have a "/4fstalk/blog1.php" file ?

At least b2evo is alive http://www.4fooksake.com/4fstalk/index.php?blog=888
http://www.4fooksake.com/4fstalk/blog1.php?disp=arcdir :)

Try unchecking "Redirect to canonical URL" in Blog settings > SEO
Set all links to use "params" instead of extra path on URLs tab

Not ye.

Trying to get the thing started. As you can see setting up is not easy and made even worse by the fact that I am using a USB modem in Spain. Used up my data allowance in no time and now it is on a trickle...

Well I can only confess: I don't know why and I don't know how but that seems to have done the trick.

And for that I thank you most sincerely!

Do you mind if I keep this thread open a while because you are a lot cleverer than me - and I might get into trouble again!!

Thanks a million!

Are you sure it's fixed? I still can't access the blog

Well I am not 100% sure but I have just tried it and it worked.

I have an additional problem in that I am not in my own country and have to use a USB modem which is working very slowly.

There is also an additional problem with the host judging by this message :

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, www.123-support.co.uk and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

I have informed them and will see how they respond.

i have 3.3.3 on godaddy and getting the infinite redirect loop on admin page. Help please!

Let me point you to your own post ;)

sam2kb, the problem i have is that my admin.php doesn't have 180 lines now. it has about 62 so I am not sure if my admin php is missing lines or not. downloaded a full package for 3.3.2 and 3.3.3 but both admin.php files are lacking that line.

Search for this line in admin.php

if( ! empty( $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] ) && $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] != $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] )

I see this code on line 182 in b2evo 3.3.3 and line 184 in b2evo 4. You probably look at the wrong file.

Thank you very much. i was looking inside conf/_admin.php instead of root/admin.php.

This worked. Thanks a lot - you are savior!
