Cannot login to admin

[renrom]

Dear all,

Hope someone can help me out on this. Unfortunately I cannot get the admin section working. As soon as I go to Admin the following url comes up in a blank page:

Seen both configre files and they look good too. As well as the store which is working normal. I appreciate and thank you in advance for your help.

Re upload all the admin files except the configure.php file. Looks like your FTP upload missed a few files or corrupted them.

Hi Michael... Many thanks for your email. Unfortunately still doesn't work even after i have replaced all the files as suggested. Please note that yesterday I have also replaced the conf file since the installation path had changed. Basically I had installed the store under the main server and after I have added the domain and connected it to the folder where the store was installed. I don't think that should have interrfered.

Here is the cong file code:

Hi there,

When I try to get your admin login page by going to the url

kazooikids.com/catalog/admin/index.php

I get bounced to the following

http://www.kazooikids.comdir_ws_adminlogin.php/

which has got a config bit in it - namely "dir_ws_admin"

Did you update the other configure.php file? (catalog/admin/includes/configure.php) The one in admin will need to be changed as well if you have moved your dir structure.

Many thanks for you reply. Yes basically both files are updated and now all I'm getting is a blank page. AABox Web Hosting | Web Hosting for the 21st centrury

The url will not work since is it badly formed and includes "dir_ws_admin" rather than "catalog/admin/" - This would make me think that you have missed something in the ADMIN configure.php file.

When I click your link - I get the following in my url bar.

http://www.kazooikids.comdir_ws_adminlogin.php/ 

Do you want to post the contents of your admin/configure.php file? (take out the passwords etc first)

I think we have found your problem.

I am no expert at OSCMAX but it looks like you have mixed up the configure.php files.

There are two of these
1) catalog/includes/configure.php
2) catalog/admin/includes/configure.php

Both files look fairly similar BUT they are not the same ...

Your ADMIN configure files should look something like this: (clean copy from install file)

define('DB_DATABASE', '');
define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persisstent connections?
define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'
?>

Note all the references to ADMIN, FCKEDITOR etc.

Your post is either a copy of the configure file from the catalog side or you have overwritten the ADMIN configure file with the one from CATALOG.

Hope this helps,

Many thanks for your reply but unfortunately I am still getting the same result... blank page! This thing is driving mad.
