Wordpress Problems with login page

Hello!

I am wondering if anyone on here could help me with a problem I have with a freshly installed Wordpress.

---

When I try to login to my admin Dashboard for the first time the page just refreshes. Without displaying any error/success message.

I tried to search around for a fix but none of them worked (clear cookies, add two lines of code to wp-config.php, Edit databases, replacing wp-admin & wp-includes, disable plugins by renaming the plugin folder etc.)

I am now stuck with no solution in view. So I will be very grateful if anyone here could help me out!

I am running 123.09beta01 on CentOS 7 64bit.

Any settings haven't been changed. What this means is that I run centmin.sh option 22 right away after Centmin Mod is installed. And I have also rebooted my server.

My VPS ($5) is hosted by Linode.

If needed, I can record my screen for you guys to understand the problem better.

Thank you so much!

 

Thank you for the fast reply!

I do use Cloudflare and their HTTPS SSL service.

Here are the outputs you requested:

I edited out my domain name for privacy reasons and replaced it with mydomain.com

Again, thank you very much!

 

Yep, I noticed that. Just edited my 2nd post.

 

Can you please tell me how to do this?

 

Hello again.

I am still having the same problem after I followed your instructions. Do you have any more idea how this problem can be solved?

Here is how it looks like (.gif) :

 

I did manually install the plugin via FTP but couldn't configure it. (No access to the dashboard. But now I will try.) And I could login after I disabled Cloudflare orange cloud. How do I move forward after this to fix the underlying problem?

Thank you for all the help! Phenomenal support
