I'm currently working a Magento 2 (2.1.14 exactly) mutli-store website and I have some problems for create a development website. I'm the only back-end developer in the company and had never work on Magento 2 before so I'm learning little by little how does it works.

We need to upgrade the Magento version, some plugins and add some functionnalities but I really need to have a clean development setup to work in, without the fear to break the production website.


Problem ⚠️

Current mode : developer

I followed these steps below but the dev website (dev.mywebsite.ch) still redirect me on the production server (www.mywebsite.ch).

  1. Create folder on server dev.website.ch
  2. Create a sub-domain and point to the newly created folder
  3. Copy all files and folders in it with rsync -avz source/* dest/
  4. Create a database dump filedump.sql
  5. Clean the dump file (advice from MgtCommerce) like sed "s/\/\*[^\/]*DEFINER.*\*\///" dump.sql > clean_dump.sql
  6. Import the dump file in the suitable DB
  7. Change the database detail in app/etc/env.php
  8. Change base URL and base secure URL in core_config_data table in the dev database

I also executed all commands I use when I want to upload a new thing/bug fix (SSH) :

  • chmod 775 /home/cloudpanel/htdocs/*/ -R
  • php bin/magento setup:di:compile
  • php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy en_US fr_FR de_DE
  • php bin/magento cache:flush
  • php bin/magento cache:clean

Cache

Try running the below commands

rm -rf var/cache var/view_preprocessed var/page_cache generated/* pub/static/frontend
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

This should solve your problem


SSL

If SSL isn't enabled on your development domain, make sure to use http:// in all core_config_data table entries (and not https://)

  • I tried this and the Anas solution above but it still redirect me to one of the store view (multi-store). I also tried to find the design/head/includes path in the core_config_data table described in this article but the value doesn't look the same : <meta name="p:domain_verify" content="ce45202ccd87ab3dabad07b683d27e79"/>

  • Can you please check your network tab to check how the redirect works? Also please search for the redirecting domain name in core_config_data Jul 10, 2019 at 11:55

  • Can you please clear your browser cache and try now. I think so the page is working fine for me without redirection Jul 10, 2019 at 12:23

    Yes! I found the solution : I was right but we haven't a SSL for the development domain so I changed https://dev.riseup.ch/ for http://dev.riseup.ch/ in the core_config_data table

the redirect problem was due to magento cache.

try to deleted everything from var/ folder for your magento site(dev.website.ch). after that you cleared your browser's cache/cookies or try with private browser for good measure & it worked!
