Hello,

I'm running Drupal 6.14 and views 6.x-2.8 and I cannot save any views. I can open the Views administration page, create a view, and then click "save", but when I go to the list of Views, the view that I just "saved" does not show up and all my work is erased.

The views module is the only module running in my installation, as I've tried to weed out a conflict from another, so apparently, there is no conflict with other modules. I have no errors in my php error logs or my apache error logs. I upgraded to Drupal 6.15 and that didn't help.

What is even more weird is that on my local test machine it works fine. When I upload to my hosting provider (Godaddy, using Linux and apache) this exact same setup doesn't work.

Any thoughts as to why this is happening and how to fix it?

Thanks,
Blue

PS another bug was submitted about a year ago, but the issue was closed with no resolution. Hopefully this is happening to someone else who has been able to fix it.

I have successfully enabled saving. If anyone else has this issue, it's because you need to set the read write execute permissions on the views module directory.

Now, having said that, I added 777 recursively to all files and folders on and in the views module folder. I'm sure this isn't secure. Does anyone know specifically what file or folder needs permissions changed?
