Welcome to WebmasterWorld, developer4hire.

I'm guessing that WP is using mod_rewrite. Have a look at the .htaccess file being used to see for sure. In the event WP is not finding what it expects in it's default implementation, perhaps the application is sending you to the Page Not Found.

hi coopster

i have checked wp .htaccess and all working fine. when i try to access normal dir within wordpress it is working fine.
but i can not access the dir in which magento is located it always redirect me to page not found.

Exactly. WP is controlling redirection. In the event you have it in the document root you are likely being redirected by the default WP .htaccess file.
