There is nothing wrong with the access rights of your configuration file. My 'configuration' file has exactly the same rights.

I am afraid, however, that your configuration file contains one or more entries which are causing your troubles. You might want to check /var/log/httpd/admin_error_log for any clues. If that doesn't reveal anything you should compare a plain configuration file with yours and try to find the entries responsable for your problem.

Good luck.

I'm sure it's not a *bug* but more likely a mistake I've made in the past that I didn't watch more closely when installing or changing something.. I've learned my lesson on that part, hopefully..

Thanx for the help, it's really appreciated

maybe i spoke too soon..  :cry:

here is the errror i found in the /var/log/httpd/admin_error_log file

Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/CGI/FormMagick/Validator.pm line 465.


and after doing a search on here , I have found what seems to be a fix, but I don't know how to apply it..
