Thank you for your reply Basara but the link provided during the installation never worked, as per my previous message - it simply took me to the homepage of my existing website rather than a page where I could login or use AbanteCart.
Yes, I have been including my domain before the "/" of each path, I just prefer not to include it in public posts at present.
I have looked at the config.php file as you suggested but cannot find a path that will work. I have copied the information below in the hope that someone can assist.
I have also tried these paths with no success:
/index.php?s=admin123
/index.php?s=ADMIN_PATH
/index.php?s=asshegoe_aban869
