I'm not able to change any values in global configuration after upgrading to Joomla 1.0.8. When I hit the Save button, I get this error message:

Not Found
The requested URL /administrator/index2.php was not found on this server.

I suppose you checked that configuration.php is writable (777)?

yes, configuration.php is set to 777. It also says "configuration.php is :  Writeable " in backend.

I have checked several installations (upgrade from 1.0.7 to 1.0.8), and I get the same errormessage. I have also cleared the cache in browsers, I have even checked it with several browsers (Firefox, Safari, Camino, IE for PC)

In IE, it says "The Page cannot be found"

As I can't replicate this locally (Mac and Firefox or Safari), I'm afraid I can't help.

Anyone else?
When I turn on the JavaScript console in Firefox, I get this warning:

Error: syntax error
Source File: http://www.xxxxx.com/administrator/inde ... mainmenu=1
Line: 187, Column: 42
Source Code:
if (form.config_session_type.value !=  ){

I have checked this on 2 other servers, and it works fine. So this could be a related to issues on server (hosting).

This is a bug in:

administrator/components/com_config/admin.config.html.php in line 102:
Code:
      function submitbutton(pressbutton) {
         var form = document.adminForm;
         
         // do field validation
         if (form.config_session_type.value != <?php echo $mosConfig_session_type; ?> ){
            if ( confirm('Are you sure you wish to change the `Session Authentication Method`? \n\n This will cause all existing frontend sessions to be deleted \n\n') ) {
               submitform( pressbutton );
            } else {


change the line:
Code:
         if (form.config_session_type.value != <?php echo $mosConfig_session_type; ?> ){


to:

Code:
         if (form.config_session_type.value != <?php echo ($mosConfig_session_type ? $mosConfig_session_type : "form.config_session_type.value"); ?> ){


(I'm sure Rey will come with a more optimized fix for svn 8) )

OR alternatively add into configuration.php the following missing line (it's missing since you took a 1.0.7 configuration.php, surprised why I haven't that problem here ???):

Code:
$mosConfig_session_type = 0;


Can a moderator change this topic to [bug] or [confirmed] ;) ?

Here is a message from my hosting company:

Quote:
Hello,
It was sendmail binary path being there in POST request and got trapped in our security rule.
I have taken care of the issue now and you shouldnt see this problem again.

You can suggest Joomla developers to post path to system binaries in a obfuscated way as this will help applying such a security rule to avoid injection attacks.


So this must be an issue for Joomla 1.0.8

To which problem is this related ? Is there one or is there two or is there three problems discussed in this thread ?

?

If yes, we have 1 confirmed and 1 unconfirmed problem in this thread (if yes, moderator: please split thread accordingly ;) , thanks).

Fixed in SVN

Though the more efficient fix is:
Code:
         if (form.config_session_type.value != <?php echo $row->config_session_type; ?> ){

This is because when $row is instantiated a default value for $row->config_session_type is set, even when no value exists in the configuration.php file



As to the writable issue, I dont believe this is a Joomla! core issue.

Hello,

I'd like to know if anyone has found a solution to this. The subject message says: [FIXED] but I have a fresh 1.0.8 installation and get the same problem when I try to save any changes to the global configuration. I tried both Beat an Rey's suggested modifications to the administrator/components/com_config/admin.config.html.php in line 102, but none of them worked for me. Am I missing something? Any hint would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!
;)

I am seeing this exact issue after upgrading from 1.0.8 to 1.0.10. The fixes referenced here don't work; they cause a config write error. Any ideas?
