Can't access Admin Area

[Xeoncross]

Ok, I installed the script to a 1and1.com hosting package but I can't access the admin area:

 

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/application_top.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/...(takenout).../oscommerce/admin/index.php on line 13

 

Apon changing line 13 from:

require('includes/application_top.php');

to

require('.../includes/application_top.php');

it will find the "application_top.php" file - but then more files can't be found. All of the files that the admin area files look for are in the root/includes dir but for some reason the admin area is calling them with just "require('includes/filename.php');"

 

Why isn't the path in these requires right? Is there some .htaccess thing I am missing?

paste Your configure.php file.

There is something wrong in it.
