New Install - No Admin after renaming.

[CarrieRawks]

New install of v1.3.9
I used the one click install on MediaTemple's control panel (if you don't know it's not CPanel, definitly different!)

I have done everything. Renamed the admin folder to something else. Then changed the permissions to "644" on the includes folder and the configure.php file and when I go to the admin page there is nothing but beautiful glorious white page of doom. (laughter please).

So I've done everything but a strip tease in front of my computer to get this cart install to work. Perhaps I am doing it wrong. Here is my config...maybe other eyes are better then mine?

This is for a client of mine, and of course some info has been changed below. :-)

So I've done everything but a strip tease in front of my computer to get this cart install to work

Do you have a web cam??

Are you attempting to access with

shop.yourdomain.com/shopadmin/

[CarrieRawks]

HAHHAHA Sorry no webcam. :-)
I am trying to access the admin part of the site. http://shop.getinvestorsnow.com/RENAMED_ADMIN
That is the actual URL. Sorry forgot to put it in my earlier posting.

[kobra]

Opps!!! > >

Should not have posted the url openly as hackers lurk everywhere

For your clients sake change it again - - editing the configure.php appropriately

I did not get an error just a blank page
