adiemus Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hello, my site was moved to another server. They didn't informed me before. From this moment on it was not longer possible to login into admin page. Site is working. The problem is only with the admin page. Error is processwire/login/ was not found. I didn't found this directory on the server. Anyone any idea for this case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotnetic Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 check your .htacces file. Is mod_rewrite enabled? are other urls working fine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adiemus Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 mod_rewrite is enabled and other urls are working. If i install processwire completely new login is possible. For admin login I have enabled HTTPS only. With new server I got a certificate warning. Could this be a reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotnetic Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 normally the backend login url is /processwire and not processwire/login /. Did you tell your browser to accept the certificate anyways? Then it should work. Else do you have access to the files via FTP? Then you can insert following code into a template file to echo the admin url: echo wire('config')->urls->admin; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adiemus Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 I accept the certificate anyway. Admin url is correct. FTP access is aviable. I call the admin page by www.xyz.de/processwire and get the massage for /processwire/login. The error-message is a message from apache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do Apache error logs say? What is chrome/firefox showing in network tab? 403? Maybe temporarily set debug on in /site/config.php to see if you can get a better error message (I doubt though, since it seems this is stemming from a server mis-configuration and ProcessWire does not even come into play) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adiemus Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 1. Exact error message: Not Found The requested URL /processwire/login/ was not found on this server. Apache Server at Port 443 2. At the moment I have no acces to apache logfiles. But I attempt to request them. 3. Networt tab shows error 404. It starts with a http 1.1 get request for the admin page (/processwire). Next request is a http 2.0 get for /processwire/login. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next request is a http 2.0 get for /processwire/login. This part sounds somewhat curious. HTTP 1.1 request to /processwire (seems to work), then HTTP 2.0 request to /processwire/login (doesn't work) – is it possible that the server is not properly configured to handle HTTP/2? What happens if you directly request /processwire/login/, i.e. type it to the address bar instead of /processwire/? Also, just to clarify: when you enter /processwire/ you get the error for /processwire/login/ right away? You didn't even see the inputs for username and password? If so, it might also be that there's something in the site or browser cache that breaks things. If your site is using default session management, i.e. files on the disk, you could start by clearing /site/assets/sessions/ of any session files currently in there. Also make sure that there's nothing odd in your browser cache by clearing that as well, or opening the admin in an incognito tab or something similar. If you've enabled database sessions, you'd probably have to clear them manually from the related database table (haven't used this feature, so not sure how exactly). By the way, the certificate error doesn't sound too good either. Did you have a certificate set up on the old server, and can you set up one on the new one as well? Although this seems unlikely, one possibility is that the server isn't properly serving HTTPS content. This is somewhat off-topic, but it seems really strange that a hosting company (assuming that this is the case) moves the site to a new server without informing you, and without providing proper support, or even making sure that things work as expected after the move. When that kind of thing happens, you might be better off looking for a new hosting provider. Just saying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the issue (HTTPS would pass through Apache port 443 as opposed to normal port 80). Could you try and disable HTTPS for admin login and see if it works? Since you cannot login, you can either do this on a fresh install or you will have to edit the home template entry in the database. Do you have access to the database? Is the frontend serving HTTPS content OK? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right. Browser cache are empty.

adiemus Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 A fresh installation without https working perfect. Access to database is available. At the moment I attempt to disable https for admin. I got to templates and edit the admin template. There is a value https with is set to 1. I set it to 0. However https is enabled. Is this ok? Serving HTTPS for frontend is disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adiemus Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 Login is now possible. I deleted the https item completely from admin template. HTTPS for admin is now disabled. Thanks to all for the great support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
