I have 1.6.4 EE running with Freeform 2.6.5.  I watered down a form for troubleshooting to the bare bones.  On submit nothing is happening.  I have a feeling that perhaps the file folder attributes aren’t set correctly somewhere.  I have the “freeform” folder in the modules folder set to 755 and all files set to 644.  I have to manually change the “freeform” folder to 755 with filezilla because the attributes are set to 000 after transfer.  The original installation files were uploaded with dreamweaver.  This makes me think that there’s another folder that doesn’t have the right file attribute settings.  Everything else seems to work fine with EE, including the email module.  I’ve used this module many times before with no problems.  Does anyone know how I can trouble shoot this further?  What other folders play with freeform? The params table is being written to but nothing else.

jedbuilt,

It seems to submit ok for me smile

Keep in mind that because you have no return parameter specified, it just reloads the same page once form is submitted. smile

Thanks Pie Man

I ended up reinstalling EE from scratch.  I wasn’t too far along and it just wasn’t adding up.  I think there may have been problems with my upload of files originally.  I have a backup/sync program that runs in the background of my operating system.  There is a possiblity that one of the EE files didn’t go over correctly due to the sync program locking it for backup.  I didn’t want to get too far down the road with a screwed up install and no Freeform.  Thanks for your reply.  FreeForm is back to rocking and rolling like it always has!!!
