Rob,

Thanks once again but still no luck... The settings all seem to be in order... And the store is working with the demo files, but does take forever to load (which isn't a good thing!)

I did a complete reinstall making sure all the files made it to the server this time and I still get exactly the same warning and error messages...

What is confusing the heck out of me is that the store seems to run fine, I can go all the way to checkout without error (obviously I don't check out since I can't change anything because I can't get into the admin panel.) If the include path is working for the front end why doesn't the back end work as well? Could this be a permissions issue? I have chmod'ed the dirs as directed.

I ran across this thread: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...t=include+path

And the issue is very similar and apparently related to iPower, I am really starting to question the PHP include path settings on the server.

I have pm'd the author of the above thread to see if he was able to get a resolution... I am just lost on what more to do...

Thanks again,
