WordPress wp-admin Login Breaks

[lhtek Profile]

ISAPI_Rewite 3.0 is installed and working but everything works fine except "wp-admin" links. It just redirects me to the login screen after every login attempt. The really strange thing is that the first site i tested lets me login but none of the others do.

Here is the .htaccess file content I'm using:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/wp-admin/.*
RewriteRule .* /index.php [L]

Any ideas where to start sleuthing?

Thanks,
Denny

Hello,

The two conditions that check if it's a real file or directory do not work, 'cause ISAPI_Rewrite doesn't have sufficient permissions to check the folders content. So, please, first see here

You may also try the following:

Code: Select all

RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(?:wp-admin|wp-login\.php).* [NC]
RewriteRule .* /index.php [L]
