Description
After uploading installation files, I went to http://domain.cz
and then I was redirected to http://domain.cz/domains/domain.cz/wp-admin/setup-config.php
, but it should be http://domain.cz/wp-admin/setup-config.php
. URL http://domain.cz/readme.html
works well. When I manually changed URL to http://domain.cz/wp-admin/setup-config.php
then everything worked well but initial redirect caused problems for many users which did not notice that and installed WP with this URL.
Popular webhoster is using .htaccess
to allow installation more sites into subdirectories, but problem is probably inside wp_guess_url()
function here: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.7.4/src/wp-includes/functions.php#L4306
$script_filename_dir . '/'
== $abspath_fix
== /data/web/virtuals/160423/virtual/www/domains/domain.cz/
But $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']
is /domains/domain.cz/index.php
There should be $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']
or $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] . 'index.php'
instead?

Hello @pavelevap,
Welcome to WordPress Trac!
Was your web host able to resolve this? If yes, what did they find?
I'm marking this ticket as a close
candidate. Why? As Dion notes, it's likely due to the host:
It looks like your host has an invalid value in
PHP_SELF
Plus, it's been over 4 years since reporter feedback was requested. Will review when/if reporter feedback provided.
Replying to pavelevap:
It looks like your host has an invalid value in
PHP_SELF
- based on your description of the URLs it should only contain/index.php
according to the PHP Documentation: http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php#refsect1-reserved.variables.server-indicesIdeally this should be brought to the attention of the web-host before WordPress attempts any form of work around here, as it's common practice for other PHP scripts to use something similar to
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
(please don't do that kids, I'm fairly sure that'll introduce security implications)Have you contacted your web-host about this yet? What did they say?
