Website was working fine, now it shows the install page?

The 4images module is looking far from OK to me.

Have you checked that your configure files are present and correct? If so, what are the permissions on them?

Have you made any changes elsewhere to your hosting account. For example some are setup with a master password that works for control panel, FTP and mysql databases and if changed ripples through to all of them. if that happened and you were using the master mysql account instead of defining a new user for your Zen Cart access, your database would become unreachable - but that's a pure guess.

Hi, thanks for the quick response. regarding the 4images module you are correct. i changed the password for the mysql accounts and it was recursive. it now works fine. However..the main site is still down.??

Ive contacted the host but am awaiting a response.

its supposed to be a holiday here in the U.K however this is bugging me and i need to find out why its happened... oh, and the sun is out which is a rare thing here anyway and im stuck indoors!

My configure files are set to 444 i changed the mysql password from my control panel, made the config files 777, amended them to show the new password, reverted them back to 444.

As for the files being present and correct im not sure what to look for? can i post them here for you to look at if i blank out passwords etc?
