If I try to make any change to the color scheme, for example change Base from #ffffff to #cccccc,
I get the following error message:

Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.

Happens every time.

We're using Drupal 7.12.

Wouldn't have a clue, I suggest you Google it. Not a theme related thing.

Strange. I get a similar (but slightly different) error in Firefox, and Safari simply won't submit. I can make any other changes in the Corolla settings page (layout, fonts, box shadows, etc.), and they submit fine...everything works. But changing the colors doesn't work in any browser. If I set it back to one of the defaults, it submits fine in all 3 browsers. I can't imagine that's not a theme thing...perhaps the theme is conflicting with something else?

Maybe a Color module related thing, but not a theme related thing - you even pointed this out yourself...

I can make any other changes in the Corolla settings... they submit fine...everything works. But changing the colors doesn't work...

So these "any other changes" are all settings supplied by Corolla and Adaptivetheme, however the Color stuff is handled by Color module, a Drupal core module. Of course there is configuration and CSS for it in Corolla, but, its been around for a few years now and has 9000 users, so chances are this is problem on your server, or something to do with your installation, which is why I suggested you Google it and try to chase down potential issues. Its a needle in a very big haystack.

Got it...thanks. Didn't realize those color settings were handled by a core module. I'll see if I can figure out why the color module is failing.

Heres some things to look for:

1. Look in files directory, are there any color CSS file being generated?
2. Does it work for Bartik and/or Garland?
3. What are the permissions on the public files folder, have you checked these and that Drupal can write to this directory?
4. How lame is your hosting, is it a free shared hosting account or a stonking great dedicated server from Rackspace?

When I google that error message I found a lot of errors being reported about Chrome, are you using Chrome, or a particular version of Chrome that has this problem (I dont know, surely you can find this out), maybe try Opera or FF?
