In your database, navigate to the table core_store.
Then look at the list of the records and reset the field is_active for the right store at the value 1.

Or if you are sure there is no stores that should stay disabled just run

update `core_store` set `is_active` = 1

If that does not solve the issue, also manually clean your caches : on the server or via ftp or ssh : delete the entire content of the folder var/cache
