ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS cloudflare > NPM > cloudpanel > wordpress

  • Hi,

    I am encountering the error “ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS” and cannot access or log in to my WordPress site. It’s strange because my first multi-site domain is working fine, but after creating a single-site domain, I am unable to get it to work.My setup:

    1. Cloudflare
      • Proxy is enabled, and traffic is forwarded to my public IP.
    2. Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM)
      • Used for load balancing (currently, only one backend server is in use).
      • A wildcard self-signed certificate is applied.
    3. CloudPanel running WordPress
      • HTTPS settings (SSL and HTTPS redirection) are disabled in Nginx.
      • wp-config.php is configured with:phpCopyEditdefine('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true); $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on';
      • This setup works fine on my multi-site domain.

    Could you help me troubleshoot why it is not working for my single-site domain? Thanks!

  • A wildcard self-signed certificate is applied.

    What’s your Cloudflare SSL/TLS Encryption mode setting?

    Note that Full (Strict) requires a valid CA-issued certificate (or a Cloudflare Origin certificate) at the origin.

    Hi George,

    Thank you for your quick response. However, after thoroughly checking, I believe the issue lies between NPM and WordPress. I tried accessing it internally by modifying the hosts file, but I still get the “ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS” error.

    Have you tried proxying traffic to the WordPress domain internally?

    I just confirmed that I can customize the theme when I access the WordPress site directly, without proxying traffic through Nginx Proxy Manager. Therefore, I am now certain that the issue lies between Nginx and WordPress, and it is probably related to the certificate. I will update this thread if I find a solution.

    Has anyone used the same setup and can offer any tips regarding this issue?
