Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Hi,

I installed Apsona ShopAdmin for Zen Cart a few days ago and still I cannot access the ShopAdmin site. From Tools in Zen Cart when clicking Apsona ShopAdmin a new page opens only with version info and my site name.
What am I doing wrong. PHP is 5.4.0, Zen Cart 1.5.0, MySQL 5.5.21. Running from localhost. Windows 7 64.
Thank you for your help.
Rob

Re: Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Rob,

I had the same problem, but got it to work easily on 1.5. Apsona requires you to use a browser like CHROME, etc. It will NOT work with IE. Try that and see if it helps.

Re: Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Thank you John.

I'm using Chrome but not working (also tried I.E.). I contactedm Asona support through their website but didn't receive answer.

Nothing else I can do...

Thanks anyway!

Re: Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Sorry that didn't help, Rob. I've got 2 testbeds on my localhost Win 7 64, and it works on both of them. There's an Apsona thread here on the board. If you havent already checked it, do a search on it and browse through it. Maybe you'll find the answer there.

I did read a post somewhere, I think from DrByte, that Apsona downloads code everytime you run it. Does your local machine have internet access when you try to run Apsona?

Re: Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Hi John,
Yes my machine is allways on line. I read all threads in this forum but nothing so far that adresses my problem. I have the feeling that must be something very simple that I'm missing.

Thanks again,
Rob

Re: Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Hi Rob,
Because of the way the admin area was re-written with additional security in 1.5.0, there is no longer a pop up apsona page.
Using the url for your site's admin area like this : YOURWEBSITE.com/YOUR ADMIN, add this to the end: /apsona_index.php
So like this: YOURWEBSITE.com/YOUR ADMIN/apsona_index.php (You will get a log-in screen, if you're not already logged into your admin area.)
BOOKMARK the apsona dashboard page. Now you can access apsona at anytime.
As I said earlier, you'll get the admin log-in screen, but one you log in, you'll be taken directly to the apsona dashboard.

Re: Unable to access Apsona ShopAdmin - localhost

Thank you Bewitching,

Your suggestion doesn't work for localhost. I've given up on trying Apsona in local server and use it on remote server.

Thank you anyways.
