Ok here's the issue. I downloaded a full copy of my site from the subdirectory that it was in. I purchased an SSL certificate (which is installed on the server but not enabled in zen cart) and re-uploaded the site files back to the new directory (root). I made the needed changes in both configure.php files and the site works fine...except, I am unable to get to the admin login so I can't login to the back end of the site. Here is the contents of the admin/includes/configure.php file (with passwords removed of course)

Code:
