Solution for wp-admin redirect to 404 Page Not Found

I recently found a solution about this weird problem in Wordpress. If you encountered the same problem I encountered before, then this solution might work for you. If you go to wp-admin and you got redirected to a 404 page, then here’s the solution that worked for me and hopefully it works for you.

I browsed in the WP forums and support pages, but I found nothing that could help me resolve my problem.

What happened is that I accidentally discovered a solution to my small dilemma. After moving my Wordpress files to a new host, the rights of the files and folder was changed.

It was CHMODed to 777. What I did to fix this wp-admin redirect problem is to CHMOD my wp-login.php to 755. You can also CHMOD it to 644 and it will still work.

I hope this post helped others who encountered the same problem as mine.

Been Offline for 2 Months

I’ve been offline for 2 months and I never realized it. Days are running too fast and I can’t parallel with its pace. After so many days and so many nights of sleep, work, eat and play, I’m now back in the world wide web.

A lot of things happened and I missed all of it. Michael Jackson died, a famous former president in the Philippines died, and a whole lot more happened and I just got the news now. Also, my good friends in the Philippines made it to the top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs (As what they call it). I think it should be Philippines’ Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs. Because if we don’t include Philippines in the title, it’s like Top 10 in the whole world. But anyway, congratulations to all the winners of this prestigious event.

I’m Tired of Blogging

I just started blogging about 3 months ago and now I’m tired. I just don’t know what to blog next or what to post. Poor Donald Serrano, thinking of something but can’t think of it. Maybe I just need some vacation and visit my grandma at Seattle. I don’t know what else to share. I’m thinking for writing a review for each episode of Heroes and Lost. These two TV episodes are the only American TV Episodes that I love watching. I have so many questions and so many answers yet to find in these TV series, specially Lost.

Until then, I will have a blogging hiatus as of now. Thanks to my few good readers who are reading this blog. Thank you so much!

My Views on the 81st Oscar Awards

The 81st Oscar Awards also known as the 2009 Annual Academy Awards was a tremendous success. They did a very great job in choosing the best of the best films in 2008 from all angles and all aspects. I really want to commend to cast of Slumdog Millionaire for the job well done. To the Director, Producer, Cameraman, Cinematographer, Actors and Actresses, you did a very great job and made your country proud.

I felt like I’m part of the film actually because I already watched it for about 10 times already. The film is heart warming and touching. The life of Jamal Malik was also very inspiring. He did the right thing, he never surrendered until the end, and he did everything he can, he even joined a game show just to find his one true love, Latika (Freida Pinto).

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button as well should be commended for its great idea of having a very curious case. An old boy from birth and getting younger as he aged. This film received the best in Special Effects award during the 81st Academy Awards.

Heath Ledger should also be commended. If he’s the leading actor, he should receive the Best Actor award. He really performed the character named “Joker” well. If I may say, he even out performed and he’s far way more better than the Joker in the comic book and the old Joker. I mean, he’s really really a great actor. His family is really proud of him as he received the award. I also felt the love of his family while watching them on TV as they are receiving the best supporting actor award. The audience did a standing ovation to the family of Heath Ledger. Others had a tears of joy, and others are almost crying for Heath because they are happy of him at the same time, sad because he’s gone from his physical body.

Sean Pean (Best Actor) and Kate Winslet (Best Actress) really deserved the award. Kate Winslet was also suprised because she was nominated together with the legendary actress, drama queen, and all around talent Meryl Streep. Anyway, she’s the best actress and she really did he best in the movie “The Reader”.

Anyway, I would just like to commend the 81st Academy Awards for a job well done. Congratulations once again to all the winners. I really want to watch Slumdog Millionaire once again!
