I have a live magento website hosted in Bluehost, I just installed wamp and tried to clone the live website to local wamp server.

After some configuration changed from live server to local, the site is working with no problem, however, there is no admin page! If I go to localhost/magento/admin, it takes me to 404 page and throw error: The requested URL /magento/admin was not found on this server.

How do I fix this? Thanks lots.

Server info: wampserver2.2e-php5.4.3-httpd2.2.22-mysql5.5.24-32b

Don't use "localhost". And check that index.php should not be in the URL path. – benmarks

Seems, that your server has no rewrites configured.

Try http://localhost/magento/index.php/admin - this should work. After that configure the rewrites in your server (enable mod_rewrite), so that everything works as intended.

And @benmarks is right - don't use localhost (i.e. server name without dots). The browser will display you admin login form, but there is a huge chance, that it won't be able to login you to the admin panel. You'd better change server name to something like magento.local.

This error happens because admin values may changed in few tables. Please check the below tables and update.

  SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
    UPDATE `core_store` SET store_id = 0 WHERE code='admin';
    UPDATE `core_store_group` SET group_id = 0 WHERE name='Default';
    UPDATE `core_website` SET website_id = 0 WHERE code='admin';
    UPDATE `customer_group` SET customer_group_id = 0 WHERE customer_group_code='NOT LOGGED IN';
    SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;

in apache "httpd.conf" file find

"#LoadModule version_module modules/mod_version.so"

and simply delete # sign to uncomment it. Then make .htaccess.sample file like .htaccess. This file located in magento root directory.
