    Taken from another user's post:

    I was having the redirect loop error after initial install. It was very frustrating because I done everything by the book, double, tripled and quadrupled checked everything. What baffled me was that I already have a successfully installed mu installation on my server. HERE IS HOW I FIXED MYDOMAIN.COM
    1. I deleted the wp-config.php
    2. I re-uploaded wp-config.php
    3. I used my gmail account as the email for the admin registration VOILA!

    I had been using myname@mydomain.com for the initial setup page registration. Problem was, I hadn't created the user or email account for myname@mydomain.com.
    I used my gmail account (an off my server account) and it worked. As soon as I logged in to the admin account, I used the MU control panel to change my email address to myname@mydomain.com. =) HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE!

    The cause, IMO is that if you make a mistake at all during setup, you must delete the config file and start over. Using the browser' back button won't help.

    I mean no disrespect and I'm glad you got it working but that's what we tell folks when they have problems with installing. Deleting any created databases as well is required.

    redirect loop after set up has nothing to do with email, I don't think wordpress check if email bounce and re-edit wp-config.php, its issue related with www and non www,

    I fixed this issue by selecting the SUBDOMAIN option on signup. Then I downloaded the wp-config file and changed the VHOST setting to NO and it worked. I had no redirect issues after that.
