[Opensim-users] Trouble saving scripts (Fred)

[Dahlia Trimble]

I've only had trouble saving scripts if I have the script open, teleport to
another region, then TP back and try to save it. Usually the viewer will
crash. Probably not related to what you are seeing though.

FIrst off, clearing viewer cache should be tried. Aside from that, keep
your eyes on the region and robust consoles while saving scripts and see if
any errors pop up. They could help with debugging some obscure config issue
or perhaps a firewall problem.
