I've just installed Drupal 4.6 and most features seem to be working properly (As far as I can tell). Except the settings page, whenever I make changes on this page, and attempt to 'Save Changes', I get a 'Page Not Found'. In the logs I can see the '500.shtml not found' entry.

The overall design of this site is pretty foreign to me, I use PHPNuke on my other site and this is very different from that, so I'm even sure where the hard-data is stored...I couldn't find it in the DB. Ofcourse, it would be nice to use the admin panel properly and apply these changes the way they were intended.

I just upgraded the site to 4.7. I figured it would be best to do it now before we have too much content on the site. Unfortunately, nothing changed...I'm still recieving a 'Page Not Found' error. I havea feeling this may be a permissions problem, where the given file doesn't have execute access, unfortunately, I don't know what file to change the permissions on. :(

Can you look in your Apache logs? It seems to be looking for a 500 Internal Server error page.

It is looking for that page....but that's not the problem. I usually get that error when a PHP file dosen't have the right permissions. What I did was extracted all the files in Windows, then rezipped them (quick way to change root extract folder). When you rezip them in Windows, all the permissions get reset to 666, instead of 755. So I usually have to manually reset some of the file to be executable. That's why I'm pretty sure this is a problem with some file not have execute permissions, I'm still not sure which file though.

Well, I'm pretty sure all I need is the filename. I've been looking through the files, and I just can't find anything specific. I may try reinstalling the software and attempt to retain permissions in the process. I'd rather not, but it's starting to look like that's the only option.
