I just encountered an unexpected error after installing String Overrides on a Drupal 5 site. I had previously used it on a few Drupal 6 sites with no problems, but while it installed fine on the D5 site, the first time I tried to submit an override, I got an error message back saying:

Validation error, please try again. If this error persists, please contact the site administrator.

I searched the issues queue, but didn't find any other reference to that message. Anyone have any idea what might have caused it?

In case it's relevant, the string I was trying to replace was "Check or money order", and the replacement text was "Cheque or money order" (because Ubercart seems to assume everyone wants to use the US spelling, and we're in Canada). But I don't think it's related to the specific text, because I tried again with a couple of other bits of text (randomly chosen from other parts of the site) and got the same.

Whoops, never mind, I found the problem. Apparently you need to enable the permissions for at least one role, even if you're logged in as user 1, who can normally do everything.

Closing the issue now, but maybe it will be helpful to anyone else who encounters this problem.
