Default ceiling light problem, Help please.

Hi I have a small problem I need help with. I and in the middle of redoing
my home and I and replacing three ceiling lights. The first two were no
problem but the one in the living room has two black wires, two white wires
and two green wires. I attached them all together (black with black etc..)
and the light came on but when it switches off it blows a breaker. So I
took down the light until I figure out what's the problem. When I bought
the house the people that moved out took the chandler that was hanging in
this room now its just a hole with wires hanging out and no light in this
room. Anyone with electrical experience please help ....My wife is driving
me crazy!!
