Page not found for admin page

[Awalji]

Hi guys.

For some odd reason I cant seem to get into my admin panel at all. All it seems to do is redirect me to my website and to page saying page not found!

Any idea how this could have happened and what I should do to fix this issue?

Thanks guys.

You're getting a 404 Page Not Found error? That means the page you're trying to point your browser to doesn't exist. Have you checked to make sure you have the name of your custom admin folder correct?

[Awalji]

Yes I have checked the folder and the custom name is correct. Im not sure why it keeps going to that page. Is there anything that I might need to change to make sure that it points to the admin page?

Do you have an .htaccess file in the root (top) directory of your store, or any sort of URL-rewriting mod installed?

[Awalji]

Yes i do have a .htaccess file in root of my store and I do also have url-rewriting mod installed which is ceon-uri-mapping module

Post the contents of the .htaccess file here.

#### BOF SSU
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
# Make sure to change "zencart" to the subfolder you install ZC. If you use root folder, change to: RewriteBase /
#RewriteBase /zencart/
RewriteBase /

# Deny access from .htaccess
RewriteRule ^\.htaccess$ - [F]

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+) index.php/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,L,PT]
# alternative rewrite rule, seem to work on GoDaddy hosts http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Godaddy_Installaton_Tips/
# to use it, please make sure you comment out the rewrite rule above, then uncomment the line below
# RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?$1 [L]

That looks like "Simple SEO URLs"; Not "CEON URI Mapping".

That said nothing jumping out in the .htaccess at a quick glance (if the file or folder exists it is not doing any rewriting).

When did this start? What version of PHP is in use? Link to the site (feel free to obscure if you feel you must)? Answers to the other questions asked in the "Posting Tips"?

Are you saying you are first redirected to your-site.com, then are presented with a 404 page? If being redirected somewhere else... Where?

have you checked the file:

NAME_OF_YOUR_ADMIN_FOLDER/includes/configure.php

if that file got overwritten and the admin is not properly set there, it may cause this problem....

This started yesterday. Before that the admin panel was working fine. When I go to the admin page it will take me to my website and give an error 404 page. How do I make sure that admin configure.php file is set properly?

Thanks
