    Actually it has nothing to do with wordfence.
    I have confirmed this with sites that don’t and never had word fence installed at all.

    I have also removed wordfence and found the issue remains.

    However I have determined that when hosting on godaddy and running multiple sites on windows in different directories….
    The web server is aware of the directories even if they are not passed in the URL.

    I confirmed this by using both .asp and .php code to look at the server variables. The code is aware of the directory names that the site is hosted in

    I have also confirmed when hosting the same multiple sites in directories under Linux, the same php code shows that the code is not aware of the directory it is in.

    I am currently having similar issues with my site: https://www.goswami.com

    When I go to https://www.goswami.com/wp-admin it redirects similar to the url Scott posted.

    https://goswami.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fgoswami.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

    When I put in the correct username and password for the CMS I get “no data”

    ========
    No data received

    ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE
    Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data.
    Reload this webpage
    Press the reload button to resubmit the data needed to load the page.
    ========

    The same happens if I try to reset the password.

    I called Godaddy and they could not find any issues with the hosting or database.

    I am at a loss here how to resolve this.

    Hosting on a Microsoft Windows package?

    Looks to me like you are running Apache your issue will be a bit different from mine.

    My issue was an artifact if the way godaddy redirected Windows sites in a shared IP.

    The only fix for me was to move to Apache (I moved away from godaddy because of the lack of help with the issue)

    I expect your issue is in your httpd.conf / redirect.

    Short term you can go to the wp-login instead of admin.
