If your IP has been changed, you will not be able to access the login or admin pages of your site. The webmaster has added a line of code to redirect all IPs other than his to a 404 error page. Here is an example which explains the same: Solution 3: The server configuration file may have a code which redirects non-trusted users (IP Addresses) on 404 page. Once the file is found, use mv or cp Unix commands to restore the file to its original location or open the folder where the files are stored in the CPanel.Ĭopy the files to the root directory of your WordPress installation. If you cannot find the file, login to the server using putty, paste the below command in the terminal, and hit enter.įind /your_website_wp_directory/ -name wp-login (for locating the login.php file)įind /directory_of_wp_installation/ -name wp-admin (for location wp-admin.php file). If you don’t remember the path, try to locate the file using CPanel. Reason 2 and solution: A WP plugin may have moved the file to some other directory or renamed it as a security measure. Hence, uploading the missing file to the server will fix the 404 error. Use FTP software such as FileZilla, CyberDuck for the same. It renders the web pages as per the settings saved in the database.
WordPress CMS does not change any of the PHP files on the server. Hence, you are seeing the 404 not found error each time you try to access the WordPress dashboard or the login page. You may have accidentally deleted one of these files. The wp-admin and wp-login PHP files are important. Earlier, we had shared a tutorial on fixing error establishing a database connection. Today, we will help you out in fixing the 404 not found error message displayed by the web browser when you try to open wp-login or wp-admin PHP files. These two problems can be easily fixed if you know the HTTP status code or error message shown by the browser when you access the twp pages.
On a bad day, you may face difficulties in logging into the WP dashboard or opening the login page. This helps support the blog and allows me to continue to make free content. If you click through and make a purchase, I may receive a commission (at no additional cost to you).
