Well,Adding [url] didn't change anything. We have since restarted webcat with also no change.So basically using an [append] or [replace&append=t] messes up this database.I really can't see anything wrong in the code, especiaally since the code does save the proper new values.We have even stopped webcat, deleted the database, created a new file using vi and populated it with a couple of vallues (and could cat the file just fine).
