I am having an issue trying to access the admin login page of a fresh install, this morning I did a fresh manual install, after prompted to delete zc_install, and moving admin folder, i am blessed with the too many redirects 301 error.
After a few hours of browsing FAQs and posts here and in google, it seems that besides a few simple fixes, most posts were simply abandoned.
I decided to use Godaddy Hosting connections to see if they had the same issue, and it did the same thing. So i called tech support and after an hour or so came to the decision that there is an issue with some .htaccess file somewhere in the admin folder. Not sure which one and i am not saying it's a ZC issue, as I am sure it works somewhere, just not the hundreds of other people who are having issues.
I did an install a few weeks ago and it worked perfectly, though this was on a windows box, not a linux like i am now. Which also leads me to suspect the .htaccess file because its not used in a windows environment.
Please dont tell me to change hosts as alot of posters do, Godaddy serves a purpose and I want to help solve the issue, not bash Godaddy.
My question is if there is somewhere that lists all of the .htaccess files under admin, and what their purpose is?
Just maybe we can resolve this issue and not have people abandon the software because they cant get into the admin.
