Re: Why can't I change the default language ?

I have not been able to reproduce this (yet) on 1.0.9
I installed French via the package manager.
Went to Admin->Configuration->Languages and selected French as the default and then Save. I tried this both from the Edit Language and Settings tab (as you can choose the default language in either place), and both worked as expected.

One other thought is that I believe the default language is saved/added to your Settings.php file in your forums root directory.
If for some reason you don't have write access to that file it would not be able to "save" your choice ... I thought the site gave a warning when that file is not writable but ??
