admin folder name change problem

I renamed my admin folder for security purposes and now I cannot open it. I attempted to replace all of the changes back to their original state, but I must have missed something. The attachments show the error dialog. There are some text attachments that show the paths and the upper portion of my configuration file. I am running this on localhost until I perfect my configuration. Then I will move it to a regular server. I hope someone can take a look and provide me some guidance.

The password is not a problem. It is the changes that I made that now affect the path to the Admin configuration. I can open the regular store.

Did you change the admin folder name in BOTH of the required sections of the admin/includes/configure.php file?

Your attachments did not show up and the link is not working so can't look at the exact situation of your site at the moment. Did you take a copy of the file before making the changes? If yes, reload it and make the changes again.

I checked the attachments. The sizes were too large. These attachments should work better.

Yes, I made changes in both places. This is a copy of the configuration file after I tried to return it to its original condition:

End of Config file.

This is the url that I use for the main page:
For the store: http://localhost/mystore/Catalog/zen...2007/index.php

For the Admin Page:
http://localhost/mystore/catalog/zen...min/login.php?

This brings up the Admin Login page. When I fill out the admin Login dialog box, and click on Login; I am taken to http://localhostdir_ws_adminlogin.php/. The page that comes up now has the error message: "DNS error"-"cannot find the server localhost dir admin login php." It also states, "Oops! This link appears to be broken."

For clarity I am attaching the jpegs that show all of this.

Is your admin directory in root or should the path have /catalog/ in front of it? Like this:
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/catalog/admin/
