Re: Upgraded to 1.5.4........now my admin page doesn't open

Besides changing your secret admin path now that it has been publicly posted, I would suggest at least temporarily creating a new setof configure.php files through the following process, and modifying as necessary to apply to your store. The current configure.php files use a lot more autolocation and simplified assignments to constants.. I didn't exactly see a formatting issue with the above configure.php, but I didn't compare to a "live" one and also don't have the store side to compare with as there may be other differences notyet considered.

See: http://www.zen-cart.com/entry.php?3-How-do-I-rebuild-my-site-on-the-new-version-instead-of-upgrading

Also, when say applied the patches of the forum, are you referring to: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?215694-Known-Bugs-%28and-fixes%29-with-v1-5-4

What php version are/were you using?

Is there anything in your /logs folder? When you say that your admin "doesn't open", I'm *assuming *that you're being presented with a whitescreen.

The recovery suggestions posted by others are good places to start.

There's nothing to rush about an upgrade if you're following the published upgrade procedure of staging the upgrade in a test COPY of your site to work out all possible kinks before applying the upgrade to the live site.
If you're looking for a way to simplify the process slightly, see: http://www.zen-cart.com/entry.php?3-How-do-I-rebuild-my-site-on-the-new-version-instead-of-upgrading for guidance on keeping the live site going with only a couple minutes downtime when fully ready to go-live with the tested upgrade.

Re: Upgraded to 1.5.4........now my admin page doesn't open

yes a white page.....possibly my configure.php I brought over from my backup file is corrupted in some way?

here's a log file (myDEBUG-adm-1422040421-466077.log)

[23-Jan-2015 12:13:41] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STATIC in /home2/cavalry1/public_html/store/larry_admin/includes/classes/class.admin.zcObserverLogEventListener.php on line 118

can you interpret?


Jan 23 2015 11:59 -- database_upgrade
NOTE: Skipped upgrade statements:

1 - See details at bottom of page for your inspection. - (Details also logged in the "upgrade_exceptions" table.) - Note: In most cases,

these failed statements can be ignored, - as they are indications that certain settings may have already been set on your site. - If all

the suggested upgrade steps have been completed (no recommendations left), - you may proceed to Skip Upgrades and continue configuring your site.

That log, which exposes your secret admin directory name to the world, is a by-product of attempting to run your Zen Cart v1.5.4 on oldy-moldy PHP 5.2.17.

You should upgrade your version of PHP (Zen Cart v1.5.4 has been tested/validated with PHP versions up to 5.6) or apply the patch that DrByte described here: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?215694-Known-Bugs-%28and-fixes%29-with-v1-5-4&p=1268233#post1268233
