(solved)admin and cpanel

Post by tabythalynne »

I am using MidPhase and have installed CMS Made Simple into the public folder. I downloaded the CMS MS User Manual PDF and it says to start in the admin. To access this admin without having downloaded CMS MS all I did was visit: tabythalynne.com/admin.

Because I have put CMS MS onto the site I should now access it by going to tabythalynne.com/cms/admin, correct? When I do that and try to put in my username and password it says it is wrong. I have tried every single username MidPhase has given me to access the admin panel. I can access the Cpanel just fine by visiting tabythalynne.com/cpanel and putting in my username and password...but how in the world do I access this admin panel that the CMSMS Manual refers to?

where exactly did you place the CMSMS files on your server?  If they are direct children of public_html, then tabythalynne.com/admin should work.  If you placed them in a subdirectory, like public_html\cmsms, then go to tabythalynne.com/cmsms/admin

Also, after uploading the files, did you go through the install?  Not sure what results you would get if you tried to access the admin panel before running the install. http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... ck_Install

I put the CMSMS File into the public_html folder. When i visit tabythalynne.com/cms/admin I get an actual page that asks for a username and password unlike the errors i receive when i try to visit tabythalynne.com/cmsms/admin or tabythalynne.com/admin so I'm assuming I'm in the right place. Now the question is finding out what the username and password is. When I installed CMSMS (and I had used the install from the link you sent when I installed it a week ago) I copied down every bit of information that was given to me. I was given a database name, a user name and a password. But no combination of these pieces allow me to get into the admin panel. How do retrieve the correct combination?
