Hello theawesome10e8,
It is a common error that Magento users face after installing their Magento site, even if the installation is successful: 404 Not Found on the multi-site admin page. The error usually occurs after moving to a new server or installing & upgrading extensions.
You can follow the below steps to fix the Admin 404 error on your site,
Re-check your admin URL in env.php:
The error can appear If you have mistyped your admin URL. First, ensure that you have the admin URL correct,
- Navigate to [..]/app/etc/ and open the env.php file.
- Now, with admin as our frontName, our admin url will be http://magento-website.com/admin.
- Lastly, If the admin URL is not correct, then update the URL.
Flush Magento cache:
- Firstly, flush the Magento cache using the following commands,
php bin/magento cache:clean
rm -rf var/cache/*
rm -rf var/generation/*
- Thus, it helps your site run faster and clears the cache to apply the latest changes.
Add/replace .htaccess file in the root folder:
- Add/restore the default .htaccess file in the root folder with the official .htaccess file from the Magento code base to fix the issue.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/pub/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/setup/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/update/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/dev/
RewriteRule .* /pub/$0 [L]
DirectoryIndex index.php
- You can Add/replace the above .htaccess file in the root folder.
Delete var/cache folder:
- Firstly, delete the var/cache folder.
- Then, navigate to your Magento 2 database and run the following SQL query:
SELECT * FROM core_config_data When path = 'web/seo/use_rewrites'
- Now, change the value of web/seo/url_rewrites to 0
- Lastly, try to access your Magento Admin through the below URL:
https://your_magent_base_url/index.php/your_admin_url/
Thus, you should try the steps mentioned above to fix the issue of your Magento site. I hope the above methods help you to resolve the error.
