I'm with kobra on this -- I don't see anything in admin/Tools/Admin Settings for changing permissions, certainly not permissions on files. Also, what's this about a version 1.3.8.1.sp1? Where did you get that? The current version is 1.3.8a.

You're using the word 'permissions' wrong, I think. Sounds like what you're trying to do is edit or add an admin user.

Admin changes that won't 'take' is one possible result of installing the latest admin security patch incorrectly. Be sure you added the patch files to admin, and not the cart section.

I am having a similar issue. Any change I make to the Configuration via the Admin they will not save. For instance I wanted to change the column width in Layout Settings and when I made the change and clicked Update it brought me back to the main admin screen and when i went back into Layout Settings the change I made wasn't there.

I am running 1.3.8a patch 1. This was a new install from HostMonster including the patch.

Any help would be appreciated.

Another thing...I can make changes to my Catalog but just not any of the Configuration settings
