Cannot log in to Admin

installed Zencart on a justhost website a month ago. I am not a programmer. I understood that to get into zencart admin i just need to type mydomain.com/zencart/admin

I get a 404 error - page not found. What am i doing wrong?

Re: Cannot log in to Admin

One of the security recommendations for Zen Cart is that the admin folder be renamed. Might you have done that?

Alternatively, are you sure that you installed it a subfolder called zencart and not somewhere else?

Re: Cannot log in to Admin

Didn't get around to renaming the admin folder yet. I was able to get into admin when I first installed Zencart but didn't get a chance to try again until today. The only folder I can find is one called fantasticodata/zen_cart with a file in it called hopefulhounds/store.

Sorry I am so computer illiterate about this. Should I just try to reinstall Zencart? Would that hurt anything?

Re: Cannot log in to Admin

have you tried mydomain.com/store/admin where mydomain.com is your domain name?

Re: Cannot log in to Admin

I just tried that and got a log-in page but it would not accept my log in or password OR email address.
