Symptoms
- Upon saving JomSocial Configuration, you are redirected to Joomla Administrator control panel.
- Any changes done in JomSocial Configuration are not saved.
Possible Causes
- Suhosin module
Suhosin is a module installed in your webserver to strengthen its security against common attacks. A misconfiguration / severely strict security restriction in Suhosin could easily prevent PHP scripts from saving information into the database. You can verify the existence of Suhosin by going to: Joomla 1.5: Administrator > Help > System Information > PHP Information Joomla 1.7: Administrator > Site > System Information > PHP Information, and locate:
- This server is protected with the Suhosin Patch 0.9.6.2
To solve this, please modify PHP.ini, and increase the value of these two settings:
suhosin.post.max_vars = 1000 suhosin.request.max_vars = 1000
