    Default Can't access admin

    I recently moved my zencart to a different web server.
    I did a fresh 5.1 install successfully, then uploaded my old sites files, and imported the old sql database.

    The site works fine, but I can't access the admin area.

    I changed the 3 /admin/ related lines in /ADMINFOLDER/includes/configure.php and /includes/configure.php

    I tried changing the .htaccess files.

    So when I log into the /admin/ folder I get a blank screen, no prompt for signing in.

    and obviously my url's aren't working, until I can get into admin and fix ceon

    So how can I fix my admin area

    And the /log/ folder is empty..

    I tried changing the .htaccess files.
    Can you explain this further, in detail??

    After you did this, did you run www.yoursite.com/zc_install/ again to invoke a db upgrade?

    And... did you read this tutorial ?

    Moving a site *and* upgrading at the same time is not recommended.

    I've just over-written the old one with a new one that's relatively empty

    If you just copy your old file system over the 1.5.1 file system and do a DB upgrade you are asking for trouble. There are significant file changes btw the ZC 1.3.x series and 1.5.1

    Read the tutorial step by step and don't skip anything.....
