Hi, I have a fairly new installation which I am trying to get up and running.

The main problem is not being able to modify Groups at: CP / System Admin / Edit Groups
I have Webmasters, Registered Users and Anon Users all listed and each with a Modify link - however clicking on that link comes back with Access Denied.

Here are the errors and Queries:

Groups Main »» Modify Group

I know it has been the weekend, but I am pretty keen to get going on this.

Is it likely that this is an installation problem which would be fixed by a re-install?

Is there someone I could talk to online about the various possibilities? Hope to hear from someone soon

I have taken the plunge and re-installed. I now have access to the Groups.

Many thanks to everyone for their input (Sorry I'm not usually a sarcy person)!

Just to clean this thread up, I believe the cause of the messy install was my version of Cuteftp Pro.

I was using Version 7.1 and had previously encountered a very annoying bug that swopped over filename names when uploading. So onefile.php and twofile.php would appear to be uploaded correctly but onefile.php was in fact twofile.php and vice versa.

Installing Version 7.2 (which documents the above problem in the changelog) seems to give me an ftp client that now works.
