    Default Admin Alert Page

    Hi

    I have been working on this all day.... I did a clean install of the newest version of zen cart. 1.3.6 but did an upgrade with my old v1.2.5 database. I have done this several times today and every time I get the main install works fine ...perfect!

    But going to the admin page I get this:

    Hello. Thank you for loading Zen Cart™.
    You are seeing this page for one or more reasons:

    This is your first time using Zen Cart™ and you haven't yet completed the normal Installation procedure.
    If this is the case for you, you will need to upload the "zc_install" folder using your FTP program, and then run zc_install/index.php via your browser (or reload this page to see a link to it).

    Your /includes/configure.php and/or /admin/includes/configure.php file contains invalid path information and/or invalid database-connection information.
    If you recently edited your configure.php files for any reason, or maybe moved your site to a different folder or different server, then you'll need to review and update all your settings to the correct values for your server.
    See the Online FAQ and Tutorials area on the Zen Cart™ website for assistance.


    I have checked the admin config file and it appears to match the main one perfectly, I have checked slashes and paths...and serach this forum... I am stumped....can someone help me fix this?

    Copy of file: ( important parts blinded )

    define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/admin/');
    define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/');
    Those need to be complete paths, starting with /home/
    .
