You always have options. The redirects are a "file" issue mostly. My previous (indirect) suggestion was to post the contents of your admin/includes/configure.php file, marking out sensitive information.
What you can do though is place the store in maintenance mode via phpmyadmin, until the update is complete. Technically that should really only be for a few minutes if sequenced properly.. To do it that way would entail developing the upgrade outside of the live site files and with a different database. I.e. as recommended for performing an update. If you have already done that development and really are ready to apply all of those changes to your live site, then the brief period that a user may not be able to properly access the site would be rectified rather quickly because the database upgrade process through zc_install forces the site into maintenance mode.
This last part though would suggest that you should apply a test version of your site somewhere on your server to validate that you won't end up with the same issue as currently experiencing..
Below is the content of configure.php. I have removed the data pertaining to file directories and sensitive information. Hope this is ok or any other option there to send the information for purview.
