Help Problem with loading the Admin welcome page !

Hi All,

I need some help on this un-resolvable problem. Tried several ways with no luck.

Installed version 1.4.4.
1. Created DB.
2. Verfied sucessful installation.
3. All ticked in the console and installation completed.
4. I access the store works like a charm. [http://www.morrisnphilip.com/shop/]
5. When i try the admin module. [http://www.morrisnphilip.com/shop/admin/ (admin/mnpadmin123)]
I get the console and when i enter password and user name
On the IE nothing happens and IE dies of no reason.
On Firefox i get the following
Content Encoding Error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of
compression.

Server log :[Tue Mar 23 04:57:15 2010] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] PHP Warning: require_once(DIR_SYSTEMstartup.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mnt/glusterfs/apache/hosting-dir/88436/user_dir/morrisnphilip.com/store/admin/index.php on line 6

6. Found some blokes have same issues as i had and tried the following
- Downloaded admin module and re-uploaded to server.
- Downloaded the older version admin module and overidden on server.
- Server-> settings-> ... tried to look for it but could not make any progress on that front.

I have also Installed version 1.4.3 incase there is some problem with the version. I get the same error.

I have enclosed my url and username and pass. Please point me in right direction. Thanks a mil.

Folks,

Finally I figured it out. Its a wee bit of vaue in the db column.

SELECT * FROM setting s where s.key="config_compression";

Change the "value" Column from '4' to '0' it works.

Hope this helps.
