HI,
After moving my zen cart from a sub directory to the root I am now encountering an error when I try to access the admin.
The front end of the site is working fine. However, when I access the admin I get this error:
ERROR: admin/includes/configure.php file not found. Suggest running zc_install/index.php?
Are there any other files I need to configure?
Does any one know what may be the problem?
Thanks!

I also forgot to mention I did run the fix cache php file and received this message:
Warning: session_start() function.session-start[/U][/URL]]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/user/public_html/fix_cache_key.php:43) in /home/user/public_html/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 102

Recommendations

Possible appropriate cache directory for your site is: /home/user/public_html/cache


Actual Information

Read DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE from configure.php: /home/user/public_html/cache
Found SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY in database: /home/ueser/public_html/cache

No changes required.
Exiting.

remove the file it calls for the cache key, also check your configure file includes --> configure.php make sure there isnt a space at the end of the file right after this ?>

see what happens

HI,
I checked the file and there are no spaces. I'm still not able to access the admin login. And both my configure.php files are correct. I can see the shopping cart site from the root url. However the admin it's working.
Still get this error:
ERROR: admin/includes/configure.php file not found. Suggest running zc_install/index.php?
Any other ideas?
Thanks!

One more thing I didn't mention. I renamed my admin folder. The error message refers to the old name "admin". Where to I modify the file that is referencing the link? My admin configure.php file is set up to reference the correct path to the admin folder that has the new name. I am not able to access the admin through the browser. Any ideas?
Thanks.

If it says file not found, this means the file does not exists on your ftp (server).

Download a copy of the zencart version you are using and upload the configure.php file to admin --> includes .

As for renaming the admin folder make sure you change the folder name in the configure.php file to match the folder name of your renamed folder.

The error message you mention:

ERROR: admin/includes/configure.php file not found. Suggest running zc_install/index.php?

... is literal text. The "admin" folder name there is coded directly into the error message. It does not detect your renamed folder.

It's only telling you that it cannot read the "includes/configure.php" file contained in your (renamed or not) admin folder.

Perhaps you set your permissions too tight so that the file is not readable.
Perhaps it doesn't exist.

Until PHP is able to read the file, you'll keep getting that error.

If you're certain that all the permissions etc are correct, you might check your server's errorlog to see if it can help you understand better what errors are occurring when trying to access the file.

HI,
I have checked my configure.php files.
And both of them are set up correctly as indicated in the documentation.
I also ran the fix_cache_key.php file.
Everything seems to be configured the way it should be.
However I still get the error:
ERROR: admin/includes/configure.php file not found. Suggest running zc_install/index.php?
When I type in the ADMIN URL in the browser window.
My server logs didn't give me any additional clues. That ERROR (as noted above) is not appearing in the logs. Any other ideas?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I've almost completed the template and CSS modifications and I would hate to have to reinstall and start from scratch.

Desperate!
