Wordpress Server not Found

Posted on August 14, 2019

I created a wordpress site just fine. We were building the site on it and were going to export it so we could upload it to a different server at a later date.

The address is http://167.99.51.249/wp-admin/index.php

When I logon now all of a sudden it says 404 Not Found. When I log into the console via terminal I see that it cannot “stat” wordpress and html. I don’t know what went wrong, and we really need to be able to get in to export our website files.

Hi,

Are you able to ssh to your droplet? Confirm that Wordpress files are still in /var/www/html. Check the permissions while you’re there as well.

I have read a lot of permission issues especially with WordPress installations.
