    Welcome to Zen Cart®

    You are seeing this page for one or more reasons

    1. This is your first time using Zen Cart® and you have not yet completed the normal installation procedures.
      If this is the case for you, you will need to upload the "zc_install" folder using your FTP program, and then run zc_install/index.php via your browser (or reload this page to see a link to it).
    2. This is not your first time using Zen Cart® and you have previously completed the normal installation procedures.
      If this is the case for you, then...
      • Your /includes/configure.php and/or /admin/includes/configure.php files contain invalid path information and/or invalid database-connection information.
      • If you recently edited your configure.php files for any reason, or perhaps moved your site to a different folder or different server, then you will need to review and update all your settings to the correct values for your server.
      • Additionally, if the permissions have been changed on your configure.php files, then perhaps they are too low for the files to be read.
      • Or the configure.php files could be missing altogether.
      • Or your web hosting provider has recently changed the server's PHP configuration (or upgraded its version) then they may have broken things as well.
      • See the Online Documentation area on the Zen Cart® website for assistance.

    I have confirmed the config files are intact. Any ideas what would have lead to this?

    Appears to "again" be working. In fact there is content at both addresses and the content appears to be different at least on the main page.

    So what was the fix?

    I tracked it down to moving too quickly, by slight of hand and brushing over the trackpad, I inadvertently drug a folder into another directory as I was closing my laptop.

    LOL once when I was learning some new FTP tool, I tried a drag and drop. SURPRISE! That's a replace, not an update.

    If it's not already part of your plan when going live, you may want to change your admin dir name, as one of the links you posted included it.
