wp-login.php wants to download, not open in browser

  • Today, I lost a post because of this problem.

    I’m trying to log into my WordPress blog. When I click on the link to login:

    https://peoriapundit.com/blogpeoria/wp-login.php

    The page doesn’t open and instead Firefox gives me a prompt for downloading the “wp-login.php” file at that location. In IE, I got the login box, but it sends me to a page: “Internet Explorer cannot display the Webpage.”

    The front page of the blog opens quite nicely, thank you.

    This isn’t the first time this has happened and I never get a satisfactory answer from my hosting company. What is going on and why does it keep happening?

  • Often you’ll see this if PHP, for whatever reason, stops.

    Used to happen on one of my blogs. I checked the apache error logs and saw messages indicating PHP was exceeding the max memory configured.

    Have you checked your error logs?

    I’m having the folks at my hosting company do this now.

    How is this fixed, if it can be fixed?

    Key words for your host:
    apache httpd.conf php

    and maybe give them this link:
    https://httpd.apache.org/docs

    Any advice would be helpful as I am not a php expert and my hosting company seems to be able to provide onlky the most general of advice.

    I’ve fixed this problem, it is in your php.ini file. Your web host may have to update this for you.
