Trying to find where redirect on apache server is happening












0















I have a redirect on my website that immediately redirects to www.mydomain.com/wordpress/index.php however, I can not find the location of the redirect.



I removed the entire site so it is not coming from the home dir.
I checked all .htaccess files.



Is there a way to increase logs to the point of showing me where the redirect is occurring?

          You probably figured out by now, but here a couple of tips:




          1. First one, check that you don't have some .htaccess doing the redirection
            (you already did that)

          2. Make a grep -R wordpress on the /etc/apache2/ directory, to see if you find some redirection

          3. Very important: Erase the cache of your browser! Or use a different one :)


          Here is someone else who had a similar problem.



          So, for versions before 2.4, add:



          RewriteEngine On
          RewriteLog "/var/log/apache2/rewrite.log"
          RewriteLogLevel 3


          to the apache.conf file. And for newer ones, just:



          LogLevel alert rewrite:trace6
