Durango Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 HiThe forum is running fine but i cannot access my admincp anymoreWhat happened :I defined in the admincp a different name for the /admin/ folder lets say admin2 and followed the instructions (create constants.php etc) then i could access to the admincp with the url /admin2/, no problemAfter that i just added one line in the htaccess : redirect match to redirect old topics (converted forum) to /forum/ (ipb4)then when i wanted to access the admincp, i had a 301 to /forum/i removed the line added in the htaccessbut no changei removed constants.phpNow when i try to reach /admin2/ there is a 301 leading to : /forum/admin/?adsess=am734qnnq6b704p8227u3acpn3&app=core&module=system&controller=login&error=&ref=What can i do ?Tx a lot

AndyF Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 It's cached in your browser, use another one to make sure I'd agree. Firefox seems quite bad for doing that sometimes (unless you configure it not to) as it likes to sometimes jump to a cached URL. Using a different browser temporarily or clearing browser cache is one way to be sure.
Durango Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 Tx for your help but actually i thought the same so i tested on a different browser, but no changeI found a solution today, for those having the same problem :- delete constants.php- rename /admin2/ in /admin/- upload the former htaccessThen you can connect again to the admincp with the /admin/ urlIt seems there is a conflict between the settings IPS gives to change /admin/ name and any permanent redirection defined in htaccess
