If it is 4.1 you still have a problem

 

Use the OLD_PASSWORD() function on the MySQL Server and change the password to the old format.

 

The new format is 41 Charaters, but old one use to hash with 16

sorry, can you give more details about how to change it.

If you installed in your "root" folder under a folder like osc then try

 

pointing your browser to www.yourserver.com/osc/catalog/index.php for the store

 

and www.yourserver.com/osc/catalog/admin/index.php for the admin facility.
