Moved the files then got a big problem T_T help!

Hi there, I'm a new zen user but I figured many stuff out..
I have been building my ZC behind the scenes here:
http://www.mysite1.com/shop/

I am nearly ready to go live with it here:
http://www.mysite1.com/

so I checked and found this:
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=122

done everything in it but I'm getting this in the main site:

Warning: main(includes/application_top.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.ruland/yabeladvd/yabeladvd.com/index.php on line 26

Warning: main(includes/application_top.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.ruland/yabeladvd/yabeladvd.com/index.php on line 26

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/application_top.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/.ruland/yabeladvd/yabeladvd.com/index.php on line 26

and getting this in the admin section:

Warning: main(includes/application_top.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.ruland/yabeladvd/yabeladvd.com/admin/index.php on line 23

Warning: main(includes/application_top.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.ruland/yabeladvd/yabeladvd.com/admin/index.php on line 23

Seems you're having some permissions problems.

all my files got the 644 permission.. is that wrong?

644 is normally correct for most files, and thus one would expect that to be fine.
What are the permissions on your "includes" folder?

Something is causing a "permission denied" error. Whatever "that" is, is likely the key to your problem.
With most traditional webservers, simply uploading the files already pre-establishes the correct permissions on the files and folders.
Thus, if you've manually changed the permissions, or if your webserver has an odd configuration, you could be running into problems that are harder to explain or diagnose.

It may be prudent to involve your hosting company's tech support team.

Hmm.. i checked and changed ALL my files and folders to 644 and still nothing changed :
i'm guessing i will have to start from scratch :(

I wasn't telling you to change your folders to 644 ... in fact, folders are typically set to 755.

Perhaps starting fresh may be a good next step.
