profile privileges doesn't save/update for some modules

Hi,

We have vTiger 5.0.4 installed and Mandriva 2007.1 and mysql 5.0.37. The strange problem below happen when we want to update profiles:

Changing permission (credit/edit, view, delete) for any modules listed above "products" window saves with no problem. But any permission changes to modules below are not saved. This happens when modifying the default sales profile, as well as new profiles that we create. (please see attached image).

Some other special symptoms: For sales profile, only the global check box for "products" gets saved. For new profiles, the "create/edit" check box also gets saved. Also, clicking on "view all" or "create/edit all" will still do what they are supposed to do and allow any users associated with that profile to view or create/edit.

I've turned on database debugging and log4php to the DEBUG level, but can't see anything obviously wrong. The database call for updateprofile seems to have completed properly.

Really appreciate any help that can help us diagnose/solve this problem. I am hoping we won't have to reinstall and have to restore all the data.

Thanks,

  • g,

    never got it to work with mandriva. we migrated our server to ubuntu - simply migrated the whole database + copied the vtiger installation direction, and now it's working perfectly.

    hope this was helpful.

  • hi,

    after a week of struggle with vtiger we found problem in security setting in suhosin for php.

    changing some parameters in vhost solved the problem!

    php_admin_value suhosin.request.max_vars 500
    php_admin_value suhosin.post.max_vars 500


    now everything works nice....

  • i can confirm this fix. thanks a lot! this php-config requirement should preferably be checked in the installation process.
