Can't login to admin after upgrading to 1.3.9g

[joeljordan]

Configure Files both reflect the following:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.domain.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.domain.com');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.domain.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.domain.com');

Originally, they did not have the "www" preceding the domain name. I have tried removing and re-adding "www" but neither works.

So, inside my /admin was another .htaccess file. I deleted the following:

# $Id: .htaccess 1105 2005-04-04 22:05:35Z birdbrain $
#
# This is used with Apache WebServers
#
# For this to work, you must include the parameter 'Options' to
# the AllowOverride configuration
#
# Example:
#
# <Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs">
# AllowOverride Options
# </Directory>
#
# 'All' with also work. (This configuration is in the
# apache/conf/httpd.conf file)
# The following makes adjustments to the SSL protocol for Internet
# Explorer browsers
<IfModule mod_setenvif.c>
<IfDefine SSL>
SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \
nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0
</IfDefine>
</IfModule>
# Fix certain PHP values
#<IfModule mod_php4.c>
# php_value session.use_trans_sid 0
# php_value register_globals 1
#</IfModule>
# to turn off register_globals
# php_value register_globals 0

And now everything works fine.

Did I need to keep any of that in there?

Yea, I'm using cpanel with Fantastico, and my host has not updated Zen Cart to h yet. I will upgrade as soon as they make it available.

Please NEVER NEVER use Fantastico for an upgrade

Manual is the only reliable method

Actually, that wasn't it at all. I though everything was working because I was still logged in... the admin section seems to work as long as I can get passed the admin log in. Which I can't if the previously mentioned:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

are in effect.

Not sure how to proceed.

How do I keep my "www" without adding the above to my .htaccess?

hmm... ok. I guess I just don't trust myself not to crash my own site.

You can let Fantastico crash it As that is what it will do

Follow the tutorial with a new install in a folder and a new database for the upgrade while your running shop remains running

What is in your configure.php files?

www or not

What is in your configure.php files?

www or not

www is IN the configure.php files

You didn't post it but try this in htaccess if it was not this way before

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.your_domain.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.your_domain.com/$1 [R=301]

Make sure that you replace "your_domain.com" with your actual domain name

That was very similar to what I had before, which I posted above. Here is what is in my .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on

# compress all text & html:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml

<Files 403.shtml>
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Files>
<Files *.html>
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
</Files>
<Files *.htm>
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
</Files>
<Files *.php>
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
</Files>

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} libwww [NC,OR]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)=http [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ – [F,L]

# -FrontPage-
IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>


RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.mydomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301]

AuthName mydomain.com
AuthUserFile /home/user/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/user/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

Here is what is in my .htaccess:

If that is actually what you have, you need to change several to your actual domain name
And "user" to your actual user name
