After connection, its only redirecting

    Hi there,

    I am excited to work on BuddyPress. I copied the files on my ftp server and started the installation process. First time I got an error, and I was asked to edit the database details on wp-config.php.

    I did so and got the connection working, but now when I enter the url I get an error saying “Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.”

    What maybe causing this error?

    The website is http://www.waapsols.com and its an addon domain on my server.

    That might be the problem. You need to get WPMU working before worrying about BuddyPress.

    Looking at the URL, it thinks you are trying to register a new hosted blog at “http://waapsols.com/”.

    When you installed WPMU, in the installation screen it asks you for a server name to use. What did you enter? I am guessing you entered your server’s IP address?

    If that’s the case, delete .htaccess and wp-config.php and drop the database, and try reinstalling, but enter “waapsols.com” during the installation.

    Hi Paul,

    Well on the installation screen, while installing WPMU, i did not entered ip address, i typed waapsols.com and all the necessary database details.

    I will try again, after deleting .htaccess and wp-config.php

    I will update you.

    thanks

    Hmm.

    Is waapsols.com hosted as its own domain, or does it do a redirect?

    Hey there.

    It worked…

    Installation of WPMU is done…

    But now I need to “add a wildcard record to my DNS records.”

    I am on LunarPages, and I am searching on how to do that…

    There is no redirect… its an addon domain to my hosting account.
