Viewing Post Redirects to Signup Page (6 posts)

    When I try to view any posts for my blog I get redirected to wp-signup.php. I'm working with a fresh install of MU.

    I apologize in advance that my site is not publicly accessible. This can not be changed at this point

    I am running:

    WordPress MU 1.3.3
    Apache 2.2.8 (Windows 2003)
    PHP 5.2.6
    MySQL 5.0

    I'm *not* using a VHOST.
    Rewrites are enabled and working.
    AllowOverride FileInfo Options for my site's folder.
    Options FollowSymLinks is set.

    Here's a snippet from the Apache access log showing the redirect:

    ###.###.###.### - - [22/May/2008:14:16:50 -0600] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 2898
    ###.###.###.### - - [22/May/2008:14:16:53 -0600] "GET /2008/05/22/test-post/ HTTP/1.1" 302 -
    ###.###.###.### - - [22/May/2008:14:16:53 -0600] "GET /wp-signup.php?new=2008 HTTP/1.1" 200 2739

    Here's my .htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    #uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule . - [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    I even searched my entire Apache and site folders and subfolders for the text "signup" and only came up with the readme.txt and wp-signup.php files. I'm baffled. There's not reason from what I can see that I should be redirected to that page of all pages.

    The initial link URL from the homepage pointing to the post is http://###.###.###.###/2008/05/22/test-post/ and the final destination URL is http://###.###.###.###/wp-signup.php?new=2008

    Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    MU needs a domain, not an IP address. From your example, it looks like you're using an IP address to access it.

    Try making a fake domain, and pointing that domain to 127.0.0.1 in your hosts file.

    Could have sworn that this was one of the things mu was checking for during the install.

    I thought so as well, in wpmu-settings IIRC. Not that I've been digging in that file or anything recently.

    Made all the necessary changes and it works fine now. Thanks again so much.
