Issue Summary
When I rearrange menu items in ?q=admin/build/menu-customize/navigation by drag-and-dropping them where I want them and then click on "Save configuration" it does not save the changes, but it logs me (the admin/"first user account") out and displays:
Access denied
You are not authorized to access this page.
Steps of reproduction:
- log in as admin/"first user"
- go to the "Navigation" administration panel (under: ?q=admin/build/menu-customize/navigation)
- drag and drop a menu item to somewhere else
- click "Save configuration"
What happens:
- the settings are not saved and the menu stays as it used to be before
- Drupal logs the user out
- Drupal displays
Access denied
You are not authorized to access this page.
Expected behaviour:
That it does not log you out and saves the new settings.
Workaround:
Edit every entry using its own "edit" link and there change the weight and parent manually.

The same happens if I try to try e.g. check the "expanded" box.
#2
same problem here, im using latest drupal 6.4
ive checked from firefox and konqueror as well, cleared cookies etc, same error, it did work before but the enable/expanded checkbox did not, now moving with drag and drop stopped working as well, i was using only core modules when the checkboxes were not working
if someone wants to check this i can come back with more details..
its either server config related (im using a debian VPS ive built from scratch) or drupal related, i think its drupal

Was there a solution to this? I have a similar problem where dragging and dropping the menu items is not working on one site running 6.8, but I have a development site that is very similar in setup to that one but on another host and it works fine (6.4).
Is there a permissions issue perhaps? I am using User/1 in both cases, but the site that is working was an automated install with Admin as the user, the broken site was manual fresh install (as of a few days ago) with a different name for the user. I have tried manually setting the permissions but this has not helped. Will create a new user to see if it is something specifc to the user/1. Using FF 3.0.5 but as it works on another site I don't think the browser is the issue.
EDIT: Just found that I cannot change any settings for menu items unless I go in and edit the menu item itself and then the settings will stick. Otherwise if I try and change it from the menu list it just doesn't stick when I hit the Save button. Something strange going on there.

You are accidentally filing an issue against a module that was last released for Drupal 4.4. Please try opening a new ticket and filing it against Drupal's core menu system.
#5
Thanks... any idea which module is the correct one to file it against? There doesn't seem to be a way to tell what is core and what is add on in the drop down?
EDIT: Never mind it magically started working again today, I spent hours trying to resolve this and really I should have just left it alone for a day, go figure!?

Same problem here. Running two installations of 6.13 (same versions, core+modules). One works fine, the other fails. Strange.
#7

#8

#9
@vlip: why it it assigned to you now? do u going to fix it?
#10
Thank you meppy, for your tip of going in and editing the menu item itself (comment #3). I have a deadline which is very close, and it would be pretty bad if I couldn't edit the menu order, or disable them at all.

@meppy
Correct project to file this against is "Drupal", as menu is a core module. Also, please see http://drupal.org/node/329056 .
"Magically started working again" might put a smile on your face (it sure did for me), but there are many others who would appreciate any clues you might be able to give to help them solve this frustrating and elusive problem. Mine went away after a theme upgrade. As there is not much attention being given to this, I'm assuming that it only affects a small minority of users, and that any core developers that are listening think that we're imagining things or have misconfigured servers, client-side issues, or something.

The problem was my host had a limit of 200 variables per post. Look here for the solution: http://drupal.org/node/257108
