I'm working on a debian server. I want to thank the forum on advance for its swift attention to my issue. I am sure we will resolve it shortly.

I cleared the log, rolled back from 5.3 to 5.2 and configured the PHP settings. Restarted the client.

Issue persists, but no errors in log.

Would be interesting to know what in PHP does not let you through. Anyway we can debug on your server?

You can rename file php.ini(to use default php.ini) or delete comment line. 
We'll fix it in 1.1.4.

Can you show your phpinfo(); output ?
