Admin Login 404 Error After Upgrade

Hi,

I had Lime Survey 2.0 installed & everything worked fine.

I upgraded to 2.05 build 141113 & the front end works fine.

I get a 404 Error, page not found, when I access the admin panel via mywebsiteaddress.com/~surveys/admin

However if I enter mywebsiteaddress.com/~surveys/admin.php I get the admin login screen (it redirects to example.com/~surveys/index.php/admin/authentication/sa/login

After I login everything works fine.

Can anyone tell me why I am getting a 404 error for example/~surveys/admin ?

The .htaccess file has the following

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on

# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

# otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteRule . index.php
</IfModule>
# General setting to properly handle LimeSurvey paths
# AcceptPathInfo on

When I upgraded from 2.0 to 2.05 I deleted all the files except the upload folder & the application/config/config.php file. I then uploaded the 05 zip file limesurvey205plus-build141113.zip & extracted it.

I renamed the installer directory, I got a message about updating the database I clicked to update it.

Everything is working excpet the url for admin but if I change the url to admin/index.php that works.

Was I supposed to go through the installation process for the upgrade instead of renaming the installer folder?
