I’m a little bit desperate at all. I can’t access to wordpress admin site via browser (it appears a entire white page, without any error message), so I check via FTP the apache2 log files.
The error log file is full of error lines like the following since days ago:
Tue Aug 19 17:27:45.701152 2014] [core:alert] [pid 19099] [client 31.4.240.64:6407] /var/www/wp-content/plugins/akismet/.htaccess: order not allowed here, referer: http://theforeigner.es/el-yihadismo-como-cuento-de-nunca-acabar/
I have any problem since yesterday when I installed a new theme. Then, it appears a different error line in the log:
[Wed Aug 20 08:50:57.995767 2014] [core:alert] [pid 21000] [client 46.27.177.98:55746] /var/www/wp-content/plugins/akismet/.htaccess: order not allowed here, referer: http://theforeigner.es/wp-admin/customize.php?theme=the-newswire
How can I solve this problem in order to restore my wordpress webpage? I tried to disable all plugins renaming the plugins folder, but the page is still appearing fully blank.
I tried also to rename the theme folder, but still no solution. The only change I noted it is that when I try to go to wp-admin on the browser (myIP/wp-login.php) it redirects me to http://theforeigner.es/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2F95.85.26.157%2Fwp-admin%2Findex.php&reauth=1 but without any result.
Thanks in advance!

Could you post more information about your Apache configuration? Most likely, this is due to an AllowOverride None somewhere in your configuration. Try adding this:
<Directory "/var/www/wp-content/plugins/akismet/">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
That’s probably too permissive. You’ll want to limit it somewhat, but if this works then you know the root issue.
