Guest Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 Hi I have done an absolutely stupid thing ( an extremely senior moment). I deleted the Admin folder in oscommerce. Does anyone know if there's any way to recover this or am I up the creek without a paddle. Many thanks Grandpa
NodsDorf Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 I assume you have no local backup? Possible you can contact your host and see if they have a backup on file for you. If not.... The next question would be did you have any modifications to your shop? If no modifications to the admin you can just download the Oscommerce module then re-upload the admin section (*note you'll need to change your configure.php file to match your settings) and follow security protocols to deal with the Filemanger.php file. If you have mods, I think you'd have to upload the a fresh copy and go through you mods and start re-doing the admin side. Unless somebody else has better ideas. Ouch!

However where would I download the admin module from. Probably a stupid question. So far I haven't any mods. Many thanks Kind regards Grandpa

Many thanks Kind regards Grandpa Ask your webhost if they have a backup of your site prior to the deletion of your admin folder. If not, download it here >> http://www.oscommerce.com/solutions/downloads ... and extract the admin folder.

NodsDorf Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 I grandpa, I didn't have any issues viewing the website, I did have an issue with the login page but that looks like it is a bad link. What page are you getting the error, and are you still getting it?

What page are you getting the error, and are you still getting it? Hi I get the error as soon as I type in the Url for the admin area (login), and press enter Trying to get the web host to take a look as its since they installed the backup. But so far not having to much luck. Many thanks for your help Kind regards Grandpa
