Because this is a pre-production site, I have stopped what I'm doing and will leave the site as is to assist as needed. The site is hosted on the Rackspace Cloud. The database is MySQL 5.0.77. I went through the 5-minute install procedure. I generated the secret keys as mentioned and pasted them into (replacing the existing ones) wp_config. I then moved wp-config to the directory above my install. Site is www.congdon.org In the settings page, WordPress address and Site Address are both http://www.congdon.org One question I have, the description next to site address states 'Enter the address here if you want your site homepage to be different from the directory you installed WordPress.' This would seem to indicate that this should be an optional setting, but it is not. I have not installed any themes or plugins. This is a '''FRESH''' install just downloaded this morning. There was nothing else in this site except an index.htm and a picture. Those files are still here, but the file has been renamed index.htm.old. The database did not exist until I created it just before installing wordpress. I can get to the Admin interface. My $_SERVER dump (I edited out the Remote IP and Rackspace customer number (six digits) from the directories...). I took the cookie out as well. {{{ UNIQUE_ID Ta7UVKwRA4sAACp4lk4AAAAX SCRIPT_URL /test.php SCRIPT_URI http://www.congdon.org/test.php PHP_DOCUMENT_ROOT /mnt/stor2-wc1-dfw1/******/www.congdon.org/web/content HTTP_USER_AGENT Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/10.0.648.151 Safari/534.16 HTTP_ACCEPT application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE en-US,en;q=0.8 HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.3 HTTP_HOST www.congdon.org HTTP_X_MOSSO_DT WinWeb-4 HTTP_X_CLUSTER_CLIENT_IP 24.123.26.124 HTTP_CONNECTION close HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING gzip,deflate,sdch PATH /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin SERVER_SIGNATURE Apache/2.2 Server at www.congdon.org Port 80 SERVER_SOFTWARE Apache/2.2 SERVER_NAME www.congdon.org SERVER_ADDR 172.17.3.139 SERVER_PORT 80 SERVER_ADMIN root@localhost SCRIPT_FILENAME /mnt/stor2-wc1-dfw1/******/www.congdon.org/web/content/test.php REMOTE_PORT 8336 GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1 SERVER_PROTOCOL HTTP/1.1 REQUEST_METHOD GET QUERY_STRING REQUEST_URI /test.php SCRIPT_NAME /test.php DOCUMENT_ROOT /mnt/stor2-wc1-dfw1/******/www.congdon.org/web/content PHP_SELF /test.php REQUEST_TIME 1303303252 argv Array argc 0 }}} Here is my output from HTTPFox {{{ 00:00:40.216 0.340 403 323 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:40.625 1.335 473 213 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:42.028 0.112 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:42.214 0.163 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:42.448 0.088 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:42.608 0.157 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:42.832 0.110 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:43.013 0.150 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:43.231 0.095 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:43.395 0.140 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:43.604 0.101 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:43.772 0.140 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:43.984 0.100 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:44.152 0.179 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:44.400 0.101 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:44.569 0.141 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:44.783 0.103 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:44.962 0.146 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:45.178 0.100 517 300 GET 302 Redirect to: index.php http://www.congdon.org/ 00:00:45.347 0.182 526 190 GET 301 Redirect to: http://www.congdon.org/ http://www.congdon.org/index.php 00:00:45.598 0.102 517 300 GET 302 text/html (NS_ERROR_REDIRECT_LOOP) http://www.congdon.org/ }}} " defect (bug) closed normal Canonical 3.1.1 blocker invalid
