Dev environ: Mac OS 14.4.1 - DevKinsta 2.13.2 - Docker 4.29.0 The import seems to have gone smoothly, but when I run the site all I see is the site URL repeated many times in the browser. “[https://sbtdc.localhttps](https://sbtdc.localhttps)://sbtdc.localmhttps://sbtdc.local$[https://sbtdc.localLhttps](https://sbtdc.localLhttps)://sbtdc.localjhttps://sbtdc.local5https://sbtdc.local6https://sbtdc.local\>[https://sbtdc.localqhttps](https://sbtdc.localqhttps)://sbtdc.localghttps://sbtdc.local~[https://sbtdc.localRhttps](https://sbtdc.localRhttps)://sbtdc.localnhttps://sbtdc.local4https://sbtdc.local” … and so on. Has anyone else seen this? Not sure how to fix it. ---

Hi @TonyBuxton ! 👋 Welcome to the Kinsta Community. That typically occurs when there’s a plugin redirect or Home/Site URL setting that is referencing the domain, and redirecting while adding the domain. When trying to reach the base .local domain in a browser with the developer console open ( **F12** in most browsers), under the **Network** tab, what headers are showing for the loop request? ---

Hello Tony, The headers you’ve sent show 200 response code which indicates a successful request. If you visit another URL, lile sbtdc.local/wp-admin, are you able to login and disable plugins? Kind regards ---

Hello. Unfortunately, any page I attempt to visit shows the same thing - the site URL repeated many times. I am not able to access wp-admin to disable plugins. In fact, the “WP Admin” button is disabled on the DevKista app site info page. ![DevKinsta-admin-disabled](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/6/6b866afd8c82b7aa596f97a2763c4de9af752366.png) ---

Hi @jackirish and @VladimirM, I found that the “wp-config.php” file is being overwritten on import to DevKinsta. The content of the file is just the site URL repeated many times. I deleted the site and re-imported. Same thing - the “wp-config.php” file is being overwritten. Any thoughts? ---

The “wp-config.php” file was the issue. I pulled a copy down from the live server, updated the credentials, and now the site loads with no problems. ---

Hi @TonyBuxton , glad to hear that it’s working! That’s strange - I haven’t seen that happen before personally 🤔 Does it happen on a new import after the manual adjustment/update to the wp-config.php file? ---

Thanks! As far as I can tell it only happens during the new import process. Not sure if this makes a difference - our site is not a standard WP build. We are using Timber (v1) / Twig for development. ---

Hello Tony 👋 It could be related to it as non-standard WP have different config files. Have you tried commenting out the cache route line in Twig config file? ---
