Wordpress wp-login Missing After Install

WaffleGerm · Sep 22, 2022

I installed centmin for the first time today, and thought i'd try it loading a wordpress site. I used option 22 to install wordpress. I didn't have any issues doing so and the site seems to work well. However when i try to login as an admin through site.com/wp-login.php i recive a blue screen saying "SITE MAINTENANCE Performing some site maintenance. Will be back shortly!". I tried a few different configurations of wordpress, but I seem to recive this same message no matter what. What am I doing wrong, and how can I login as admin.

thank you in advance for your help.

Interesting maybe related to sitestatus mode https://community.centminmod.com/threads/sitestatus-maintenance-mode.5599/ ?

Did you accidentally run the command to enable site maintenance mode?
Code (Text):
sitestatus off
if you did, you can disable site maintenance mode via command
Code (Text):
sitestatus on

Thanks, for your quick response.
Doesn't seem like that is it.
this is my site, this is simply a test url on a test server. I'm trying to understand centmin before i start using it will all my wordpress sites.

https://wptest2.tk/wp-login.php

Could there be an issue with some other aspect of my configuration?

I used the PHP 8.1.x default beta installer, should i try another version?

Have you edited the generated Nginx vhost config file yet or still using the stock config generated via centmin.sh menu option 22 ?

When you create a new nginx vhost domain via centmin.sh menu option 2 or menu option 22 or via /usr/bin/nv cli command line, you will create the Nginx vhost files and directories. You will get an outputted the path location where it will create the domain name's vhost conf file named newdomain.com.conf (and newdomain.com.ssl.conf if you selected yes to self signed SSL)

Nginx vhost conf path will be at /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/newdomain.com.conf

Nginx HTTP/2 SSL vhost conf path will be at /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/newdomain.com.ssl.conf

Nginx Self-Signed SSL Certificate Directory at /usr/local/nginx/conf/ssl/newdomain.com

Vhost public web root will be at /home/nginx/domains/newdomain.com/public

Vhost log directory will be at /home/nginx/domains/newdomain.com/log

Please post the contents of /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/newdomain.com.conf and if applicable /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/newdomain.com.ssl.conf wrapped in CODE tags (outlined at How to use forum BBCODE code tags)

what is output of these commands in ssh
Code (Text):
curl -I https://domain.com
Code (Text):
curl -I https://www.domain.com
Code (Text):
curl -I http://domain.com
Code (Text):
curl -I http://www.domain.com
wrap output in CODE tags

I have not edited the config file I simply did everything through option 22.

Not seeing anything that would cause the maintenance page to trigger but it I don't see the maintenance page but a 401 HTTP authentication password protected page for wp login URL. Is it when you log in pass the prompted user/password that you get the maintenance page?

I see you have Cloudflare in front, make sure you're using Full SSL and not Flexible SSL for Cloudflare so Cloudflare talks with your HTTPS version site and Nginx vhost config at /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/wptest2.tk.ssl.conf

Also make sure that Wordpress site settings has default site set to HTTPS version of your domain address

Thank you so much for all your help. Turns out it was cloudflare and having "Flexible SSL"

everything works now =)
