When I submit a set of permissions via the web form, the changes don't actually get submitted to the database. When I log in to the database and add the row manually, it works fine (and is reflected in the GUI). Is there something obvious I'm missing in setting this up? I looked for an access control but didn't see one for allowing the ability to set permissions.]

Thanks,

Im experiencing this as well. I've found that if the root user edits these settings they get saved, but when a user with a custom role edited the same settings, they would not be saved. I'm wondering if this is a bug or if it's a matter of configuration. Perhaps some users don't have permission to modify the settings? If this is the case, how do you set which roles have this ability?

I think the problem has something to do with the required entries for allowing users to modify permissions. I don't seem to have any entries in my node_access table, so if I can figure out what's required I'm guessing that this will start working.

I think this might have been resolved in head via a patch that was submitted elsewhere, so will check on the most recent 4.7 code and come back to this.
