It does look like you’ve managed to resolve this. For any others who may be facing a similar issue the most common reason for this problem is if rewrites are not enabled in Apache (LAMP) or you have not made additional configuration changes required to run WordPress on Nginx (LEMP).

If you are using Apache you will want to run the following commands:

sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo service apache2 restart

If you are running NGINX (LEMP) take a look at the official documentation here or our guide here on how to configure nginx so that WordPress will function as expected.
