Can't login to admin...any ideas?

Hi all,

I set up my Zen Cart store months ago, but finally just got my product in this week. I had it all set up, no problems, just had to add photos. Now, I'm totally unable to login to the Admin for some reason. I have tried to resend password, and it doesn't resend. I tried going into PhpMyAdmin to double check the username and default email to make sure it was going to the right place. When I hit resend, nothing happens (no error message, nothing).

I tried changing the username and password to 'Admin' and 'Password' as per other posts I've found here (through SQL), and that didn't work either.

Any other ideas? I'm not sure what happened between last month and now that it doesn't work.

Help?

Holly

Ya, I tried that.

For anyone else who's stuck I thought I'd post how I fixed it (yay!).

I had recently done a 301 redirect from http://mysite.com to http://www.mysite.com, and hadn't changed that in my store's config files.

I went to mystore/includes/configure.php AND mystore/admin/includes/configure.php and changed the urls to http://www.mysite.com and now it works!

A fact that you did not disclose initially!!

Glad you got it sorted
