How can I get the Zen Cart: Admin user password? Since it seems everything given me doesn't let me in.
I have the hosting password and Ftp password..so I can see all the files...

Hi,

I thought did the rest but I think I dropped the zn_admin...before running the script or something dumb..aahhh
when I try to log in I get:
zc_admin' doesn't exist.. Iknow it doesn't since I dropped it in error.

I have a admin but not a zn_admin

Can I rebuild it?

if you really dropped the admin table , then the only way to rebuilt it is to restore it from your database backup ( latest ) if you have any done ..

if you never done any back up before , contact your hosting company. most host do backup of database on daily basis .. so they might be able to restore your database or just admin table for you .

Thanks for the reply,
I know I droped the zc_admin for a fact.
Is there anyway of renaming the admin (no zc_) file that is there or is it a totally different beast.

default zencart installer , will create two table for admin .. called admin and admin activity log tables . it sounds like , your designer has installed zen cart once without zc_ prefix for table names , and second time with zc_ prefix ..
your site currently using tables with zc_ added to table name ..

how many tables do you have in your database ? default install is 98 tables.

although that can be renamed , but honestly , i do not know the side effect of such changes to rest of your site.
