I changed the baseurl system->configuration->web from mysite.com to mysite.com/mysite trying to fix an error. Problem is now i can't get into the backend to change it back. Does someone know a fix for this without backend access?

  • Magento question as old as time, you edit or send an update query to the database - for 1.x, added information that might be applicable - http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/35087/how-can-we-stop-a-magento-site-clone-from-redirecting-back-to-live-site/35119#35119 – Fiasco Labs Jul 25 '16 at 16:16
  • you are completely right. I had gone through all the forums and did the trial and error approach but it was just not working out. Magento has so many variables. But anyway I was able to get it working...Finally! For anyone else that might have a similar issue, clear cache, look at the answer from Aman Alam. That's what worked for me. Thanks for the help! – learning it Jul 25 '16 at 17:15

You are directly able to update it from database by below mentioned query replace http://domainname/ with you base url.

update core_config_data set value = 'http://domainname/' where path = 'web/unsecure/base_url';
update core_config_data set value = 'http://domainname/' where path = 'web/secure/base_url';

Hope it will help.
