After logging in as the admin, making a change to the site configuration, and then clicking on Next, I always get logged out and the change did not take. Any thoughts?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Can someone please supply me a list of filenames which have to have WRITE permissions to allow me to freely edit configs WITHOUT BEING LOGGED OUT every other time? For example, i can not get my personalized Welcome message to be displayed because (I think) when i try to edit the ged_conf.php file (even though it has 777 permissions), i can not set the option "Standard header for custom Welcome text" to NO.

I know how to set file permissions, but i need to know what files have to be writable in order not to get logged out when making a change. It's very frustrating.

Are you chaning the server_url setting. Perhaps from
www.example.com to example.com (where both resolve to the same server).
This could cause you to logt out, as your login would only be valid for the domain name that you logged in to.

I think this is due to the config file not having write permissions.

Fixed the problem by creating a tmp directory in ./index? and pointed the session.save_path to this directory.
thanks

Glad you fixed it.
Regarding the WIKI page. This forum messed up the URL Stephen gave you. It is:
> `http://wiki.phpgedview.net/en/index.php?title=Setting_File_Permissions`
It is not just about HOW to set permissions, it has a full list of what permissions are required.

thanks much Nigel, this will help
