Help! keep getting directed to admin login

I have moved my site to the root folder and updated the config folders. NowI keep getting directed to the admin login page. I fixed the cache using the admin section. I even tried to run the fix cache tool. When I ran it i was sill directed to the admin login page?!?!

Any Ideas?

Here is my config

Re: Help! keep getting directed to admin login

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.kmsorganics.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://www.kmsorganics.com');

and

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.coolsite.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://www.coolsite.com');
define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.coolsite.com');
define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.coolsite.com');

These do not match. Maybe that's the problem????

Re: Help! keep getting directed to admin login

I forgot to mask my site with coolsite.com. Anyone know how to edit a post?

furthermore

My cart worked under the folder "catalog". I tried to move it to the root folder and discovered that "PHP Session" is not enabled?!?! I am hosted on a windows server with GoDaddy. They told me that their windows server do not work with PHP ?!?! So I moved it back under the "catalog" folder and it worked fine?!?!

Go figure.

Anyone know what/if any problems I might have with PHP Sessions not enabled? I can logon as a shopper and admin just fine?

Stumped I am.

Re: Help! keep getting directed to admin login

Switch to Linux for your godaddy hosting - all will be right as rain once you do that. I have several sites hosted with godaddy - all Linux (Zen Cart wouldn't even download from their Metropolis to a Windows server!)

Good luck!
