Getting a 404 on Affiliate Login page

[rosgardner]

Hi,

I get a 404 error when I try to access the affiliate login page at:

http://members.affiliatebloggerpro.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-platform/affiliates/

Any idea about what I’ve done wrong?

Thanks,

Ros

Hi Rosalind, I am pretty sure you have a .htaccess or some other sort of protection on your site which is blocking the “index.php” script to run in the following URL:

http://members.affiliatebloggerpro.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-platform/affiliates/

Will you please check up on that and let me know?

Hi Amin,

The .htaccess is pretty much just the standard for WordPress…

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>



# END WordPress

Cheers,

Ros

Your .htaccess file in the root directory looks good but I am pretty certain if you have more .htaccess files in sub-directories (e.g. the “wp-content” directory). Otherwise why should the following URL go to a 404 page?

http://members.affiliatebloggerpro.com/wp-content/

or

http://members.affiliatebloggerpro.com/wp-content/plugins

I know the above directory structure exists so you have go to have more protection somewhere else

Also, can you please check the permission on the files in the “affiliates” directory? Files should have 644 and directories should have 755 permission. Sometimes if the permissions are loose then your server will block it from running due to security issues.

If the “index.php” file is there then the only way it will go to a 404 is if the server blocks it so just we gotta find out what it is.

Hi Amin,

The only other .htaccess file exists in the root at http://affiliatebloggerpro.com/

AuthName affiliatebloggerpro.com

AuthUserFile /home/affblog/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd

AuthGroupFile /home/affblog/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp



RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^go/([/_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)$ link.php?id=$1



# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>



# END WordPress



<Limit GET POST>

order deny,allow

deny from all

allow from all

</Limit>

<Limit PUT DELETE>

order deny,allow

deny from all

</Limit>

I CHMOD all directories and files as indicated above and still getting the 404.

Lets try the easiest way to fix this rather than going around in circles

Since I know that it is a hosting permission related issue lets give the following a try:

Please send an email to your hosting provider asking them why you get a 404 when trying to access a .php script. You can give them the following link for example and they will understand it:

http://members.affiliatebloggerpro.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-platform/affiliates/register.php

So in this case we know that the “register.php” file is in there but it won’t execute. Let me know how it goes.

[rosgardner]

Will do.

Please let me know how it goes.
