Can’t access admin when WordPress is in a subfolder

  • Hello,

    I installed WordPress using this Docker image. In installed WordPress on a sub-folder (https://thibault.vlacich.fr/blog).

    I’m using Traefik for routing. Here’s my docker-compose file:

    
version: '3.7'

networks:
  http_network:
    external: true
  thibaultvlacich:
    external: false

services:
  database:
    image: mariadb:latest
    command: ['--character-set-server=utf8mb4', '--collation-server=utf8mb4_unicode_ci', '--default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_password']
    volumes:
      - .docker/data/db:/var/lib/mysql
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
      MYSQL_DATABASE: ${MYSQL_DATABASE}
      MYSQL_USER: ${MYSQL_USER}
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_PASSWORD}
    networks:
      - thibaultvlacich

  wordpress:
    depends_on:
      - database
    image: wordpress:latest
    volumes:
      - ./wordpress/wp-content:/var/www/html/wp-content
    environment:
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: database:3306
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: ${MYSQL_USER}
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_PASSWORD}
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: ${MYSQL_DATABASE}
    labels:
      - traefik.enable=true
      - traefik.frontend.rule=Host:thibault.vlacich.fr;PathPrefix:/blog;PathPrefixStrip:/blog
      - traefik.port=80
      - traefik.docker.network=http_network
    networks:
      - thibaultvlacich
      - http_network

    Everything is working fine, at the exception of the admin. When I go to https://thibault.vlacich.fr/blog/wp-admin, I’m redirected to https://thibault.vlacich.fr/wp-admin, and then can’t access the admin.

    Any idea how I could fix that? (Both WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL are correctly set to https://thibault.vlacich.fr/blog)

    Login is working fine, it’s when I want to access the admin that it’s not working.

    did you checked htaccess code ?

    its look like something like this.

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /blog/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress

    Thanks
    Ahir

    if that does not work then can you do this:

    Log in to your hosting Control Panel account.
    Go to public_html folder.
    Locate the wp-config.php file for your WordPress website.
    Edit the wp-config.php file.
    To enable WP_Debug, add the following code to the end of the file:

    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );

    and see if you get any error related to path.

    Thanks

    No issue with the htaccess, URL rewriting is working perfectly fine.

    I’m not seeing any error with WP_DEBUG on true.
