#227666 — WordPress Log Out Issue

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hello!

When attempting to log out of a newly installed WordPress site, it
redirects to "http://wp-login.php/?loggedout=true" (it's missing the
hostname). I followed the instructions on the wiki to install:
https://wiki.debian.org/WordPress, but will post my procedure below as
well.

There are no custom themes or plugins installed. It was a fresh install of
WordPress on a fresh install of Debian. Everything else seems to work as
intended except for logging out. As a test, I upgraded a previous
installation to Testing and the issue I'm describing does not occur in the
newer version of the WordPress package, so I'm assuming that it only
affects Stable (*or just me?*). I also installed using the tar.gz from the
WordPress site and the issue is not present using that method either. I
would prefer to stick to using the package from stable for this project, so
I figured I'd ask here if there are any solutions available.

There is nothing to note in the apache error.log and only the following in
the access.log from logging in and logging out:

Steps to reproduce:

   - Install Debian 10.5 on KVM virtual machine in Proxmox
   - Update Debian:
      - sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
   - Install packages:
      - sudo apt install wordpress curl apache2 mariadb-server
   - Secure database:
      - sudo my_sql_secure_installation
   - Set hostname
      - sudo hostnamectl set-hostname wptest
   - Edit /etc/hosts:
   - sudoedit /etc/hosts
      - 127.0.0.1 wptest.local.lan wptest
   - Run wordpress helper script:
      - cd /usr/share/wordpress/examples
      - sudo bash setup-mysql -n wordpress wptest.local.lan
   - Configure apache:
      - sudoedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/wordpress.conf

    <VirtualHost *:80>
            ServerName wptest.local.lan

            ServerAdmin webmaster@local.lan
            DocumentRoot /usr/share/wordpress

            Alias /wp-content /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content
            <Directory /usr/share/wordpress>
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride Limit Options FileInfo
                DirectoryIndex index.php
                Require all granted
            </Directory>
            <Directory /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content>
                Options FollowSymLinks
                Require all granted
            </Directory>

            ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
            CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
    </VirtualHost>


   - Disable default site:
      - sudo a2dissite 000-default.conf
   - Enable site:
      - sudo a2ensite wordpress.conf
   - Reload apache:
   - sudo systemctl reload apache2
   - Visit site: http://wptest.local.lan
   - Perform initial setup
   - Log in
   - Use 'Log Out' in upper right corner of the screen in the admin header.
   - It redirects to http://wp-login.php/?loggedout=true (hostname is
   missing)

* (enabling mod_rewrite doesn't help either)
