Hi,

I've been running a great MediaWiki website at http://www.chasethechicken.info and somewhere between December 20 and January 4, something happened that now members cannot save edited pages any more. When pressing the "save changes" button, they get the "this is a review only" message. Funnily enough, those that aren't logged in, can save their changes. I've reinstalled the wiki (exported-imported mySQL database) and sought help from Powweb staff. If you like, you can play with the account "Hoorapurikas", password: "testaccount." Please let me know if you have any ideas!

Thanks a lot,
Mart Lume

I think I got it figured out from #mediawiki chat channel (there's a link from mediawiki.com homepage - use it!)

Had to go to php.ini in root folder under htdocs. "save_session_path" there pointed to a directory that didn't exist (changed by a program i no longer use). Yea, interesting... ;)
