[Solved]: I keep getting a 404 error when I goto config

[Joxxer]

Hi All,

I just installed and everything appeared to go smooth. However, I click on config in Admin mode and get a File not found error. I verified,( and even reloaded config.php to the host server) that the file is there. I was able to create an album and upload pics, and everything else seems to work. Am I missing something? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks :\'(

Some webhosts don't allow the word "config" to be in filenames for security reasons. Rename you config.php file to something else (e.g. foobar.php) and change the link to the config in your menu: edit themes/yourtheme/theme.php and find

Code Select Expand

<td class="admin_menu"><a href="config.php" title="">{CONFIG_LNK}</a></td>Replace the link to your renamed file (e.g.

Code Select Expand

<td class="admin_menu"><a href="foobar.php" title="">{CONFIG_LNK}</a></td>). Please report back if this works for you.

I have the same problem.

I will try the fix but It may take me awhile to get it right, as I'm not sure what theme this thing uses on default settings.

by default, coppermine uses the classic theme.
