Description
Aegir 0.4-Alpha2 installed on Ubuntu 8.04.3 via install script.
A positive response is given when saving changes at Site configuration --> File system
yet the fields revert back to the default values.
This is due to the following code in settings.php
global $conf;
$conf['file_directory_path'] = 'sites/example.com/files';
$conf['file_directory_temp'] = 'sites/example.com/files/tmp';
$conf['file_downloads'] = 1;
$conf['cache'] = 1;
$conf['clean_url'] = 1;
#1
this is by design. otherwise the sites would walk all over their directories and it would be impossible to migrate them cleanly
#2
So by design the private download method has been disabled.
#3
private download is a major performance drain, and that code is from the hostmaster code base.
you can comment out that line in the settings template file for now, and we can patch it to allow it to be set.
i've opened to issue again and changed it to be more specific to your needs.
