    Default Admin Folder problems after moving site to new URL

    I need to move the store to a new URL so I created a sub domain on the current site and a new test store for practice. I used the one-click install of a store then simply moved the database and altered the includes/configuration.php

    Everything seemed to go well. I uploaded the database using MyphpAdmin then moved the folders in place overwriting the other files. Now I can not get to the Admin.

    The store seems to work properly and the inventory is displaying properly. The problem is with the admin folder. For this purpose my Admin folder was simply changed to */seadmin. Is there some common over-site when dealing with the Admin folder?

    It's not a big deal I can wipe it out and start over with the one-click install. I did not follow the ZC approved instructions on moving a site, which I need to do.

    Did you update your /ADMIN/includes/configure.php file to reflect the subdomain and file-structure changes?

    I wanted to know if there was a common mistake everyone made. Eureka!
    TYPO's That's the common mistake everyone makes!
    I put a 'www.' in front of a URL link and apparently the server was not set to recognize both with and without the 'www'.

    Sometimes the best was to learn it is truly to jump in. But, I will use ZC check sheet the next time I move one.

    Thanks for the help.
