Problem renaming Admin Directory 2.1.4 and 2.1.5

Hi Guys, i have a fresh install of 2.1.5 and i can't get to rename the admin directory.

I rename the folder and then i add this line to config.php:
$config['admin_dir'] ="adminxxx";

when i navigate to the directory i get:

Fatal error: Uncaught --> Smarty: Unable to load template file 'login.tpl' <-- thrown in /home/......../html/lib/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatebase.php on line 127

I was lso having big trouble moving the installation from a temporary directory into the main directory. Files (modules i think) were still looking for the old directory. I now have the old directory sitting with just the modules files. I hope i'll be able to sort that out as well.

Thanks for the help

Every time you change the config.php file you absolutely must clear the cache... manually if necessary.

seems like clearing the cache from the admin interface did not do the work. After manually clearing the cache i was able to get into the new admin folder.
