redirect loop on main blog (4 posts)

    Hi all,
    Came in to work this morning and my main site is giving the redirect loop error: http://www.foreignpolicyblogs.com. I can't log in using /wp-admin on the main site either. However, all of the subdomains work normally (http://africa.foreignpolicyblogs.com). I tried messing with the secret salts, took a look at .htaccess, and looked through my error logs, but can't find the problem.

    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Did your webhost change anything? Even a minor update?

    They claim not. Yesterday morning I manually edited the database to changes spaces to dashes in several usernames, and it continued working fine after that until some time in the night. I also added a maxredirects statement to httpd.conf, which seemed to work ok for several hours. I changed back the httpd.conf when I started getting the error, and restarted the server but it didn't change anything.

    Any idea why foreignpolicyblogs.com/* would break, while all subdomains continue functioning normally?

    I would be checking out all the main DNS records, server alias records etc..
