View Full Version : Solved VB4.0.3 CMS Loop

When logged out only, trying to enter the CMS content using default vb mod_rewrite sends browsers into a loop, with the following error:


The web page at (won't allow me to post URL in the message) has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.

Tested this across Chrome, FF and IE8, same result on all, only the CMS and only when logged out.

As you could imagine, this is sending search engines into a little bit of an issue trying to spider in different languages. Forum and Blog when logged out are perfect.

Me or a bug?

This also happens to me. The solution was to review my SEO settings (rewrite) [] s!
