Re: Zen Admin not looking in correct Folder

Hi Folks,
This is not a reply to this thread but I figured it's linked! Pardon me and direct me and I will follow...
I just installed zencart and have been reading the forums for some answers to my problems but I seem a little lost. After 3 Install and Now a new Install I have my two zen carts running. https://www.tropicxotic.com https://www.saginFoods.com

My problem is One of the sites https://www.saginFoods.com/estore
Does not give me my Admin Screen to go and Modify or edit anything.
When I type https://www.saginFoods.com/estore/admin I get a 404 Error. i am not using any of the previous databases associated with it. Should I reinstall?

Problem 2 should probably be listed in template Customization or the Css/template overides. I have created the CUSTOM Directory/folder and changed some texts as you are suppossed to at saginfoods.com/estore/includes/languages/english/Custom
The same for tropicxotic.com/httpdocs/includes/languages/custom But the "sales message goes here" is still there and so is the congrats message.
What am I not doing right?
Thanks.:mellow:

Re: Re: Zen Admin not looking in correct Folder

  1. Almost certainly an error in the admin/includes/configure.php

2.Probably haven't selected the CUSTOM template in admin. Check here:

Re: Re: Zen Admin not looking in correct Folder

Stevesh,
Thanks for your speedy reply. The Linkn you pasted above was my 1st stop. it actually introduced the concept of Overides to me.
"2.Probably haven't selected the CUSTOM template in admin. Check here:
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=36

Question: How do I select CUSTOM template in admin when I can't get to my Admin screen. Do I go to my server locate the admin folder and select it?
Thanks.

Please find Below my Config.php file. Does it look right?

You can't. My mistake. We'll have to fix the admin problem first.

I got a 'security certificate' error the first time I tried to access your admin - do you have a SSL certificate installed?

Re: Re: Zen Admin not looking in correct Folder

Yes, The SSL is Installed/Enabled. the SSL was provided by my host for free. We intended using a Merchant SSL once the store was ready, thus my enabling it at install.

Sorry for late reply. I Initially could not locate my posted Thread.
