I just transfered my magento installation from one local machine server to another. Now, I cannot login to admin panel. When I go to the admin login url, I get the following error message:-
"Error: 404 Not Found"
Some of my module's pages also show this error.
Can anyone please figure out the problem?
The simplest and easiest way to fix your 404 error code is to redirect the page to another one. You can perform this task using a 301 redirect. What's 301, you may ask? It's a redirect response code that signals a browser that the content has been transferred to another URL.
Default Admin URL and Path: http://yourdomain.com/magento/admin.
Finally, I found the solution to my problem.
I looked into the Magento system log file (var/log/system.log). There I saw the exact error.
The error is as below:-
Recoverable Error: Argument 1 passed to Mage_Core_Model_Store::setWebsite() must be an instance of Mage_Core_Model_Website, null given, called in YOUR_PATH\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\App.php on line 555 and defined in YOUR_PATH\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Store.php on line 285
Recoverable Error: Argument 1 passed to Mage_Core_Model_Store_Group::setWebsite() must be an instance of Mage_Core_Model_Website, null given, called in YOUR_PATH\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\App.php on line 575 and defined in YOUR_PATH\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Store\Group.php on line 227
Actually, I had this error before. But, error display message like Error: 404 Not Found
was new to me.
The reason for this error is that store_id
and website_id
for admin should be set to 0 (zero). But, when you import database to new server, somehow these values are not set to 0.
Open PhpMyAdmin and run the following query in your database:-
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0; UPDATE `core_store` SET store_id = 0 WHERE code='admin'; UPDATE `core_store_group` SET group_id = 0 WHERE name='Default'; UPDATE `core_website` SET website_id = 0 WHERE code='admin'; UPDATE `customer_group` SET customer_group_id = 0 WHERE customer_group_code='NOT LOGGED IN'; SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;
