Why does my page redirect to localhost in my wordpress blog?
This is my site URL http://www.weblogicsol.com/ , Here I installed a wordpress theme having URL http://www.weblogicsol.com/blog , the problem is this when I want to open the wp-admin (means when I write http://www.weblogicsol.com/blog/wp-admin) it redirect to localhost. Please help me to solve this problem, I am in trouble.
And if I write this code in wp-config file
define('WP_HOME','http://example.com'); define('WP_SITEURL','http://example.com');
then this URL appears with an error message.

Check your wp-options table and find all occurrence of 'localhost' in option_value field
http://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description#Table:_wp_options
SELECT * from wp_options where option_value like '%localhost%';
and change those to your live URL and you should be set
Here's a very extensive documentation on migrating wordpress http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress
Check the Dashboard -> Settings -> WordPress Address (URL), Site Address (URL) There should not be 'localhost'
There are two areas in the WP_OPTIONS that you need to change. One is one the fisrt page and the other one is on the 2nd page.
