Issue in WordPress Migration

Posted April 25, 2016 2.2k views
WordPressDNS

Hi,

I migrated my WordPress site from shared hosting to DO using steps mentioned in https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-migrate-wordpress-from-shared-hosting-to-a-cloud-server-with-zero-downtime article.

Everything seems to be OK except the last step. I updated Name Servers of my domain to DO ones. I also added A record in Networking section of DO. But I can’t access the site. Here is the URL: http://testingdiaries.com/. Browser shows too many redirects error.

Can you please help me resolve this? Please let me know in case any details are needed.

Thank you

    Thank you. :)

    This seem to have done the trick. But I am running into another issue now. Getting 404 error for every post and page. Any idea as to why this may be happening?

[SOLVED]

  1. Edited Virtual Host config as suggested by @newbie
  2. Enabled mod_rewrite in Ubuntu as seen at https://randomwordpresstips.wordpress.com/2013/05/10/enabling-permalinks-on-wordpress-install-ubuntu-12-10/
