    Configuration changes don't save - are blank

    I've just installed Zen Cart 1.3.5 (fresh install) on a RHEL 4 host running Apache 2.0.52 with PHP 4.3.9 and mysql 4.1.20.

    SAFE_MODE is off.

    Installation was no problem, no warnings or errors. But when I access the admin pages and try to change any of the conifguration variables they show up blank.

    No errors that I see, but when I make the change (say, set the HTML Editor from "NONE" to "HTMLAREA") and hit "Update" it says it updated but the field is now empty.

    I have an older version of zencart (1.2.7) on another host and I've compared the permissions, etc and they match so I'm not sure why my changes aren't being saved and are blanking out.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Still can't resolve this... does anyone have any idea whatsoever of what/where I can look to solve this problem?

    You might try a fresh install and see if some of the files did not upload correctly ...

    Be sure that you are using the current Zen Cart v1.3.5 from our Downloads ...

    This was a fresh install, straight from the downloads. My first instinct was a bad install as well, so I'd already removed the tree, re-downloaded and got the same results...

    Any other ideas?

    And you have for both the configuration files:
    /includes/configure.php
    /admin/includes/configure.php

    The same URLs, database, username, password ...

    What browser are you using?

    Are you using an old php for any particular reason?

    Are you using Apache 2.x for any particular reason?

    Sounds like a server issue ...

    I'm using Apache 2.0.52 with PHP 4.3.9 (see original post) and I've tried using both IE6 and Firefox (windows and linux) with the same results.

    Oh..sorry -- yes, both includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php have the same URL, passwords, etc.

    What happens if you go into phpMyAdmin and browse the configuration table of your database and edit something and change the configuration_value ...

    Using phpMyAdmin, the data is saved properly and shows up in Zencart.

    Few questions

    what kind of sessions are you using(db or file)
    are you using any kind of sql cacheing
    can u try editing a shipping module (as this uses configuration table but a different method of editing)
    any chance of a phpinfo or techsupp report

    also u say the values disappear on edit. is this all types of values text/radio/dropdown or just some

    cheers
