I just found a solution to the problem here:

http://willcodeforcoffee.com/2007/01/31/cakephp-error-500-too-many-redirects/

The .htaccess file in webroot should look like:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

instead of this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /projectname
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

Just add   RewriteBase     after  RewriteEngine On    and you are done        so it should be   RewriteEngine On RewriteBase   RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -d RewriteCond   REQUEST FILENAME   -f RewriteRule   index php  QSA L

This error occurred to me when I was debugging the PHP header   function   header  Location   aaa bbb ccc       error   If I use a relative path it works   header  Location  aaa bbb ccc       success  but not what I wanted   However when I use an absolute path like  aaa bbb ccc  it gives the exact error      Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable   configuration error  Use  LimitInternalRecursion  to increase the   limit if necessary  Use  LogLevel debug  to get a backtrace    It appears the header function redirects internally without going HTTP at all which is weird  After some tests and trials  I found the solution of adding exit after header     header  Location   aaa bbb ccc    exit    And it works properly
