Description
Hi
I have installed Attachment and Filemanager module for Drupal 5 and both are activated.
I have also set the permission to add attachments and disabled the Upload module,
but when I go to create content there is nothing there to attach a file.
Thanks

I'm guessing you've missed a step. You need to go into the setup of each content type that you want to be able to add attachments to and enable attachments for that content. Go to /admin/content/types and click the edit link next to the type. Near the bottom in the Workflow section, you'll see Attachments. Select enable and hit submit.

Is there a known issue about settings not being saved?
I activate both upload's and attachment's checkboxes in a content type settings page, but the attachment checkbox never checked when I go back to that page...

Your issue seems to be completely unrelated from the one discussed here - why did you change this issue instead of opening a new one? This is a bug tracking system ;-)
I also do not quite understand you .. upload? When you say "both upload and attachment" are you talking about upload.module? Because that needs to be disabled for attachment.module to work properly. Also did you load filemanager.module?

I changed the subject because:
a. The first one was too general
b. I had the same symptoms of franso
If I was mistaken, please accept my apologies.
However, I disabled upload.module, and still had problems. I suspect it to be related to variable names, but I'll first check, and if proven true I'll open another issue.
Thanks
