 * I can not log-in to my admin area (for writing/editing etc.). When I try to log-
   in to admin area, i get the message: 404 Not Found
    and Nothing found for Wp-
   admin It shows a sitemap instead of admin area. It accepts the username and password(
   as I can see there are 2 comments pending, 4 pdates available etc.) Another thing
   I want to mention. Before the problem started I scheduled a few posts, which 
   are going live without normally any problem. How can I log-in to admin area without
   loosing any data. My hosting provider says to install the wordpress again, can
   it be done without loosing any data. Can anyone help me. Thanks

 * Do you know what version of WordPress you were running? Can you make a quick 
   backup of the database just in case? It sounds like you’re missing an important
   file or two, possibly in the wp-admin folder. If you know what version of wordpress
   you were using you can download a copy of it and then try uploading just the /
   wp-admin/ and see if that helps.
 * Backup the database and your theme files first.

 * Jessn,
 * Could you please take a look at [http://www.A-1Locksmith.com/blog/wp-admin](http://www.A-1Locksmith.com/blog/wp-admin)
   and maybe tell me why my wp-admin page is no longer available? 2 days ago I was
   in the admin panel and I changed the site url from [http://www.A-1Locksmith.com/blog/wp-admin](http://www.A-1Locksmith.com/blog/wp-admin)
   to [http://www.A-1Locksmith.com/wp-admin](http://www.A-1Locksmith.com/wp-admin)
   and instantaneously the admin panel went down. I haven’t been able to login since.
 * ANY advice would be great.

 * Do you mind sharing with me how you solved the problem? I seem to be having a
   very similar problem and can’t figure it out. I’ve been trying to resolve now
   for 2 days. ugh!
