When saving changes in the menu on the Display > Menus page, I get a Forbidden error
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /wp-admin/nav-menus.php on this server.
Apache/2.2.0 (Fedora) Server at www.sgdevliet.nl Port 80What CHMOD should this file and the parent folder have? The rest of the admin is working ok.
wp-admin should be 755 - as should the wordpress root folder. Files should be 644.

Folder was 755 already and I changed the files to 644 – the problem is however still there?

The strange thing is that I only got an error in the nav-menus screen, not in any other, while the same CHMOD is applied. I tried deleting and reuploading both nav-menus.php, as well as the whole wp-admin folder, but this didn't work either. Any help?
Have you got any .htaccess rules in your wp-admin folder?

No, should I have?
Not necessarily, it just might have accounted for the behaviour you're seeing.
Try disabling your plugins and re-testing.

I disabled all the plugins, but the problem still remains :-(

I have the similar problem, I can not access nav-menus.php, it return a 404 not found page. I have installed a fresh wordpress with nothing posted and plugins, I just add categories and menu items, it become not working after I add certain amount of menu item.
For my real site, I tried the following: I deleted .htaccess file, the nav-menu.php return an internal server error page, but all other files in the back admin area are all working. .htaccess file is required for using custom permalink. After I put .htaccess file back, it return a 404 not found. I can no longer access the menu panel in the admin area
Anyone why is this happening and how to fix?
