    Default Configure.php not as per tutorial. Please Help

    I am attempting my first installation. The tutorial on this page:

    https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=33

    tells me to navigate in my zencart directory to:

    /admin/includes/configure.php

    I have done that, and downloaded it into a text editor to do this:


    Change this section:
    [[

    define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');
    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/admin/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

    ]]


    And this section:

    [[

    define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home/mystore.com/www/public/admin/');
    define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/mystore.com/www/public/');

    ]]

    My problem is that none of these lines that I am supposed to edit are in the configure.php file. I have searched and the word "admin" is not in the file at all. These are the only two sections vaguely like the above:

    define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/zencart/');
    define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/zencart/');
    define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/');
    define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/');
    define('DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'functions/');
    define('DIR_WS_CLASSES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'classes/');
    define('DIR_WS_MODULES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'modules/');
    define('DIR_WS_LANGUAGES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'languages/');
    define('DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'pub/');
    define('DIR_WS_TEMPLATES', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'templates/');
    define('DIR_WS_PHPBB', '/');

    and

    define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/content/96/8132196/html/zencart/');
    define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');
    define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');
    define('DIR_WS_UPLOADS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'uploads/');
    define('DIR_FS_UPLOADS', DIR_FS_CATALOG . DIR_WS_UPLOADS);
    define('DIR_FS_EMAIL_TEMPLATES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'email/');

    So , I am thinking that I am supposed to substitute something for something other than the tutorial. Is it "zencart"? It sort of looks as it is in a similar place in the code? I really don't know. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Default Re: Configure.php not as per tutorial. Please Help

    The means you didn't go the YOUR_ADMIN_NAME/includes/configure.php but just to includes/configure.php where you'll find the configure.php file for the public side of your site, and not the one for the admin area, which is what you need to edit.

    It looks like you're editing includes/configure.php, rather than admin/includes/configure.php.
