I've got a brand-new clean Drupal 6.22 installed on MAMP (the Drupal Commons installation profile)
Books are enabled, ALL permissions are enabled for the only user (admin.)

In a book:
1) I click the "Outline Child Pages" tab
2) Click "Add Content" button, the popup appears.
3) Enter a title in the popup window
4) Click "add content" and.....nothing. Popup disappears. No new content is added.

The only module I've added to my Drupal Commons installation is Outline Designer 6.x-1.3. Any ideas? The whole reason I ditched my Drupal 7 project was to use Book Manager and Outline Designer. :( Please help.

Just for the record, I just installed a brand new version of Drupal 6.22 and it misbehaves exactly the same way as my Drupal Commons install.

Do you have book manager turned on as well? There's a patch that needs to be applied for them to work together http://drupal.org/node/1063686

Clean URLs on? Anything else? Book also needs to have some pages in it and type needs to be selected as being able to be put in a book or it will block it. Use this on a lot of sites (100ish) so seems like there's something else going on.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Nothing else is installed except Outline Designer. No book manager, no clean URLS - although, I did try it with clean URLs and it made no difference. There are three "book pages" in my book - all created the old fashioned way.

Honestly, I think it's MAMP? I tried four different releases of Outline Designer on a clean MAMP install of Drupal 6.21 & 6.22 and it didn't work then, either. (I even tracked down an old copy of Zzzz_ajax!)

Is there some reason MAMP would interfere?

I'm thinking MAMP stack. I had a friend who would report similar issues and I could never replicate. Maybe check your browser you're using as well?

It's definitely MAMP. I installed/uploaded the whole "drupal commons" site to an online hosting account, and it works fine.

So, for those of you building Drupal sites on a localhost setup using MAMP Version 1.9.5, fair warning. The Mac OS X MAMP stack creates mysterious problems. Frustrating....I lost two whole days trying to debug a module that clearly didn't need debugging!
