Admin panel not working......


Guest

Recommended Posts

Thanks to some help, I was able to get the Admin panel to appear on my website via "http://www.XXXXX.XXX/catalog/admin"

 

None of the admin panel links work though - I assumed that once the admin panel came up I would be able to click those and create my shopping cart in that manner.....or do I have to edit each individual file via wordpad to get this running?

 

I'm learning as I go here - I have some html knowledge, we currently have a website for the store that is just an information/idea website with working links and such - but have I bitten off more than I can chew with this?

 

I appreciate any advice/help you can offer!!

pretty tough to troubleshoot without knowing what else may be going on. when you installed the site, did you change any of the settings during the installation process?

where did you copy your files to on your server?

did you perhaps move the admin or rename it in anyway?

nope - I installed following the Knowledge Base directions......everything went well, but I couldn't access the catalog or admin - got an Unable to access database.....

 

Bobg7 & etepalusip had me edit my config php files:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.2galsscrappin.com'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

  define('HTTPS_SERVER', ''); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

  define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

  define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.2galsscrapping.com');

  define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.2galsscrapping.com');

 

define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/home/www/2galsscrapping.com/catalog/');

(The absolute path to your website)

 

define('DB_SERVER', 'yourhost.com'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

  define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'xxxx_xxxx');

  define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'xxxxx');

  define('DB_DATABASE', 'xxxx_xxxx');

  define('USE_PCONNECT', 'true'); // use persistent connections?

  define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

 

I did this this morning, and now I can access the Admin Tool panel with all the categories listed - but when I click on any of the links (like My Store, or Cache, or Catalog) I get a HTTP 404 Page Not Found error......

 

When I installed the program, I copied all the files to my /public file on our site (same directory all of our files need to be for our site to work). I haven't changed the location of any of the files, the only editing I have done is the config php - I downloaded them, did the editing via WordPad and then uploaded them to the same directory I had taken them from in the first place.....and that's it!

Hi 2Gals, I just looked at you site, including admin ( need to get that password protected by the way) and it looks like everything is working now.

 

Just need to remove or rename the install directory and set the permissions on the configuration as instructed in the setup instructions and let the fun begin.

 

Congrats and good luck,
