[otrs] SysConfig items not updating

Hello All, Got a debian install all up and working, have read several other threads and have the permissions and everything setup so I can goto SysConfig, however after I select a group and a sub group and try to make changes to an element the changes are not made and everything appears grayed out. I cant uncheck the boxes because they are grayed out and when I change a value of an element and hit update the change is not made. I was however able to make changes via the .pm file, I would rather use the web interface however, any suggestions? -B
