Re: Admin Page Won't Load
I tried to edit the above post, but it won't allow me to, so here's a quick update.
I tried logging in again, and this is the newest log report. At least it finally showed the proper admin folder, so I changed that to xxxxxx in this post.

But here's what's really weird: The two files it's saying aren't there: (includes/autoload_func.php) and (includes/init_includes/init_special_funcs.php) ARE both there, right where they belong! So why is it saying they're not there??
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
It "sounds like" the /admin/includes/configure.php has some extra/unwanted information present. Please post the contents (minus the database settings, towards the bottom of the file) using the "CODE" tag (the big # in the menu-bar when you write your response).

Re: Admin Page Won't Load
There should also be a file /admin/includes/init_includes/init_special_funcs.php (where admin is your site's admin directory name).
You can find your Zen Cart version by viewing the contents of /includes/version.php, BTW.
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
Good to know. I'm definitely using version 1.5.8a.
The admin/includes/init_includes/init_special_funcs.php file is not there. How do I correct this?

Re: Admin Page Won't Load
Okay, that helped...I think. Now I'm seeing an error page that says I either need to upload and run the zc_install folder (which I removed yesterday following the install instructions, or the admin folder would have been blocked, or
Code:
This is not your first time using Zen CartŪ and you have previously completed the normal installation procedures.
If this is the case for you, then...
Your /includes/configure.php and/or /admin/includes/configure.php files contain invalid path information and/or invalid database-connection information.
If you recently edited your configure.php files for any reason, or perhaps moved your site to a different folder or different server, then you will need to review and update all your settings to the correct values for your server.
Additionally, if the permissions have been changed on your configure.php files, then perhaps they are too low for the files to be read.
Or the configure.php files could be missing altogether.
Or your web hosting provider has recently changed the server's PHP configuration (or upgraded its version) then they may have broken things as well.
See the Online Documentation area on the Zen CartŪ website for assistance.
I tried editing includes/configure.php, removing the same section of code, but nothing has changed. I'm still getting the same error page. So what else do I need to check?
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
We really need to see both config files (with database names and passwords changed) in order to get everything set correctly.
Again, use the # and add them separately.

Sure, no problem.

Re: Admin Page Won't Load
I just noticed this extra line toward the bottom of the error page:
Code:
Additional *IMPORTANT* Details: includes/configure.php file contents invalid. ie: DIR_FS_CATALOG not valid or not set
What should the proper code be? When I change it back to
Code:
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home2/boruma/public_html/rainforest-pets.com/');
which is what it was originally, the extra error message goes away, but it still says:
Code:
This is not your first time using Zen CartŪ and you have previously completed the normal installation procedures.
If this is the case for you, then...
Your /includes/configure.php and/or /admin/includes/configure.php files contain invalid path information and/or invalid database-connection information.
If you recently edited your configure.php files for any reason, or perhaps moved your site to a different folder or different server, then you will need to review and update all your settings to the correct values for your server.
Additionally, if the permissions have been changed on your configure.php files, then perhaps they are too low for the files to be read.
Or the configure.php files could be missing altogether.
Or your web hosting provider has recently changed the server's PHP configuration (or upgraded its version) then they may have broken things as well.
See the Online Documentation area on the Zen CartŪ website for assistance.
So I must be missing something else.
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
Remember that the storefront /includes/configure.php gets marked as read-only, so changes you thought you'd applied to that file ... might not have been.
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
So I have to change the permissions on the files I uploaded? You know, that's always seemed to be an obviously unnecessary step. If they need to be read/write, they should be made read/write from the beginning. I honestly don't understand why they're not, and we have to go in and manually change them. If anyone would like to take a moment to explain the logic of this, I'd really like to know, because it seems totally illogical to me.

Not all files, just the storefront /includes/configure.php. FWIW, it's been like that as long as I've been involved with Zen Cart and I'm not sure what the motivation is. I'm guessing that it's an ancient security measure that could probably be done away with.
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
Yes, I agree. I've been using Zencart for at least 10 years, and it's always been an annoyance.
Well, I changed the permissions on both configure.php files, but nothing has changed. I'm still seeing the same error page.

But did yuo also remove the mistake where your entered your URL when the prompt said .../store/?
It should stop with public_html/ unless your actual store is in some other directory.
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
Yes, I did. And I made sure the file permissions didn't change. Still no change.
Re: Admin Page Won't Load
Put a small php file called "showdir.php" at the root of your site (same level as "includes" and "images"):
<?php
echo getcwd();
then in your browser go to
https://YOUR-STORE.com/showdir.php
and post what it says.
