From 1.3.8a to 1.3.9h and cant access admin

[countingsheep]

I am working on an upgrade for a friend, (she was hacked) and I have it installed in a temp directory as instructed. The public side is viewable (in maintenance mode right now) both in the current directory and my temp (new_zen) directory, but the admin comes up with this:
FILENAME_ALERT_PAGE.php
saying that the link appears to be broken. The directory for admin is there. Ive installed it twice to make sure.

Any suggestions, or what did I miss?

Ok, I am able to see the login page. However when I click on the login button I am directed to the main directory not my testing directory. Which then gives me an oops, that is a broken link. So, I changed the configure.php file for the admin area to reflect the temporary directory thinking that was the problem. Still same result. (perhaps I have the wrong paths in the configure file? )

The configure.php files are secured to 644 and my install directory has been deleted after upgrading the database to 1.3.9. My admin directory is named something different than admin too just in case that is the problem? Anyone have any ideas?

(Edited this to clarify better)

Ok, I am able to see the login page for my upgraded directory.. However when I click on the login button I am directed to a link that removes the subdirectory from the link. For example: http://www.mysite.com/zen_new/myadmi...tory/login.php is where I need to go, but, the link goes to : http://www.myside.com/myadmindirectory/login.php which does not exist. Giving me an oops, that is a broken link. So, I changed the configure.php file for the admin area to reflect the temporary directory thinking that was the problem. Still same result. (perhaps I have the wrong paths in the configure file? )

The configure.php files are secured to 644 and my install directory has been deleted after upgrading the database to 1.3.9. My admin directory is named something different than admin too just in case that is the problem? Anyone have any ideas?

I am able to login to the admin area of the MAIN admin directory without any problems.

Is this a completly new instilation in the sub directory?
ie new database etc?
if so the config files should have been correct from the start.. what change did you make?

Basically what I did was add the template overrides to the new version of 1.3.9, installed my database into a new database, and upgraded the database from 1.3.8 to 1.3.9 in the new directory.

website.com/ficticiousadmn/

should be:

website.com/subdirectory/ficticiousadmn/ ?

and the same with the orther 2 entries:

OK, thank you, that worked. Now it is saying that I am still using 1.3.8 version in the sub directory. I assume I should have installed it instead of just upgrading the database?

[Donal]

you installed 139 into the sub directory yes?
there must still be a ref to the old store in the config files somewhere

[countingsheep]

Technically, I didnt "install" it, I just upgraded the database... but it is 1.3.9 files
