Issue in WordPress Migration

Posted on April 25, 2016

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

remove the following line from virtual host

Redirect permanent / http://yourdomain.com/

then see what happens

[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/
