    Just downloaded and installed MODX 0963 and got a new site working.  BUT: I can not  Configure the site.

    Tools-Configuration  and then hitting "Save" gives (even when changing nothing at all ):

    Internal Server Error / The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. / Please contact the server administrator, and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

    Also I get the same error when I try to save a new snippet. Well not always appearently, as first time I made a snippet all was fine...

    It really drives me nuts... anyone an idea?
