Sylvester82 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hi, I need some help to solve this. After I use 'simple script' to install prestashop v1.4.6.2, a pop-up icon shows something like "delete some install folder and rename the admin folder/file" if i not wrong but I accidentally close the pop-up. And now, I can't login to admin page. Can someone tells me which files/folder to delete and folder to rename? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellini13 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 there are 2 folders, admin and install you need to delete the install folder, and rename admin to something else. it can be anything you want, except admin or install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvester82 Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hi bellini13, thanks for replied. However I still can't get it works out. I've deleted "Installer_disabled" folder and rename "administrator" folder but nothing seem to work. Instead I got an error after I've renamed "administrator" folder.

Hi Sylvester, There shouldn't be any folder called "Installer_disabled" on a new installation. It should be titled "install." The same goes for the other one, which is titled "admin" by default. Once you've changed the name of the admin folder "admin123," for example. Please try navigating to www.yoursite.com/admin123 instead of www.yoursite.com/admin. Even once you've changed the admin directory, if you are still on that confirmation page with links to your front and back offices, the back office link will still be routed to www.yoursite.com/admin, which is no longer available. But by going to the /admin123 directory, you should have no issues accessing your control panel. I hope this helps. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvester82 Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Hi, I went through the whole directory but can't find any 'install' or 'admin' folder/file. I found ""Installer_disabled" and "administrator" instead of 'install' and 'admin'. I tried login but was redirected to the admin login page.

bellini13 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 did you install prestashop, or was it install by your hosting company or via script? i suspect "simple script" means it was scripted by your host and that script renames the folders appropriately. have you tried using IE or Firefox to see if the issue is related to Chrome? can you PM me the url of your front office and back office so I can see what is going on?
