I am in the process of the upgrade. When I went to log into my Admin for my site it gave me this message "database upgrade required. please run the 1.3.9-to-1.5.0 upgrade via zc_install" . So I can not even log in to my admin for my zencart. if I go to the zencart site the store looks fine, but I want to log in to my admin so I can finish setting it up. What do I need to do?

Re: Upgrade problems
But I did the upgrade, compared and copied files, had everything backed up going well, can open the site fine, but just can't log in to my admin settings to finish products etc before officially getting up and going for my customers

Re: Upgrade problems
And what happened when you ran the Database Upgrade step in zc_install ?

Re: Upgrade problems
What differences exist between your /admin/includes/configure.php and your /includes/configure.php file, as far as the DB_XXXXXXX settings go? They need to be the same. And, if the files are read-only then you can't save changes to them until you make them writable first.

Re: Upgrade problems
We created a new store via our cPanel and used the 1.5 version of Zen cart. then installed our backed up database to it. when I open up the zencart using that url it looks good, just can't log in to my admin settings, when I use the url to do that I get the message stated above.

That's not a correct upgrade procedure. Originally Posted by zantalluri

So ... as the message says, upload the zc_install folder and run it, and choose Database Upgrade when prompted. Read the upgrade instructions mentioned previously for more detail..
