Can't save new items in menu management after moving WordPress

    I’ve been looking for answer to this for hours, but I can’t seem to find any documentation.

    I started building my WordPress site locally using XAMPP Lite. Once it was close to complete, I moved it to a Windows Server running Apache, PHP and MySQL. HOWEVER, since the move, I can’t seem to save changes to my menus using the new menu management feature. It worked fine while I was working on the site on XAMPP … now, each time I go to add a page, it successfully adds it to the list, but when I click the “Save” button, it reverts back to the old version.

    Interestingly enough, if I REMOVE an item from a menu and click save, it saves the changes! I can create new menus, but adding pages to them is a no-go also.

    I’ve tried deactivating all my plugins and reinstalling WordPress, but I still had the exact same problem. I’m guessing there’s some issue with the write permissions (I had to enable mod_rewrite right after the move because my permalinks broke) but for now, I’m at a loss. Can someone please help?

    Potentially important information:
    PHP Version 5.3.0
    System: Windows NT SRV-HTIMES-WEB 5.2 build 3790 (Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Service Pack 2) i586
    Apache Version 2.2.11
    Suhosin not installed

    Sorry to bump, but did you ever manage to fix this? I’m having the same issue for an editor role in of my installations – if you’re logged in as an editor, you’re unable to successfully add menu items – they’ve vanished whnen you click ‘save’.
