Q: Detailed Description of the Problem A: When downloading a Kinsta subdomain multisite from staging or live I am unable to open the main site and get a redirect error in the browser. I have tried this many times with several different multisite setups living within Kinsta.
Hi @ekline, thanks for reaching out!
I’m able to reproduce this and can confirm that it’s due to a known issue with the Search and Replace. You would need to use the database manager to edit the wp_blogs and and wp_posts entries. Those will need to use kinsta.local domain names.
The good news is that we are releasing a new version of DevKinsta very soon that should resolve this issue. I’m going to run some tests with the new release and make sure that this is fixed.
I just installed everything today so the most up to date versions. I then created a multisite on Kingsta and tried to pull it down to my windows machine. Then once completed I got the too many redirects error.
Can you check the wp-confing.php file on your local machine? Is it still referring to the staging site?
Also in the database, are wp_blogs and wp_site not being updated to the .local domain?
There is a different database-related issue happening with the current Windows version that could cause this. The good news is that the next DevKinsta release with the appropriate fix will be coming out either this week or next week.
I can let you know once the new version has been released so that you can try again.

Yes, sorry, it looks like it didn’t export the database, which is the current issue with Windows/DevKinsta.
You can wait until the new version is released or you can manually export the database from Kinsta/phpMyAdmin then import it into DevKinsta/Database manager. You would just have to manually update the table values.
