Why does my page redirect to localhost in my wordpress blog?

Question

This is my site URL http://www.weblogicsol.com/ , Here I installed a wordpress theme having URL http://www.weblogicsol.com/blog , the problem is this when I want to open the wp-admin (means when I write http://www.weblogicsol.com/blog/wp-admin) it redirect to localhost. Please help me to solve this problem, I am in trouble.

And if I write this code in wp-config file

define('WP_HOME','http://example.com'); define('WP_SITEURL','http://example.com');

then this URL appears with an error message.

http://weblogicsol.com/blog/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.weblogicsol.com%2Fblog%2F%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

Answer 1

Check your wp-options table and find all occurrence of 'localhost' in option_value field

http://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description#Table:_wp_options

SELECT * from wp_options where option_value like '%localhost%';

and change those to your live URL and you should be set

Answer 2

Check the Dashboard -> Settings -> WordPress Address (URL), Site Address (URL) There should NOT be 'localhost'
