WordPress themes won't load

[John Weng]

My WordPress installs aren't loading themes at all. These two test sites are on the same VM, shared IP, behind a proxy server.
http://eristest1.partners.org/ <== manual installation via the terminal
http://eristest2.partners.org/ <== installed via Plesk

Interesting find is that when I request an image, even though the log file shows status 200 (OK), it shows error 404 on the browser. The file is definitely there, and it displays fine when I copy it to another computer.

Access/error logs aren't showing any errors. Plesk login for user/admin both work well.

Please advise!

Thanks,
John

behind a proxy server

Are you sure that reason is not here?

 

[John Weng]

Definitely not the proxy. I have another VM (sans Plesk) on the same subnet and behind the same proxy without issues:

Hi John Weng,

both mentioned sites are loading, but you seem to forget, that wordpress needs additional rewrite rules, when using nginx ( or any other proxy ).

Please see the wordpress documentation for further informations, when using nginx, or use the Google search, as for example: site:wordpress.org "wordpress" "nginx"

Thanks UFHH01 and IgorG. It was indeed the external proxy server/WordPress combo. Instead of having to manually modify proxy rules for each site, we've decided to remove the proxy server from the equation and use a direct public IP instead. So far so good.
