What am I missing here.

I edited RT_SiteConfig.pm with the new value but two columns still show 
up when I edit Custom Fields.

mciahel


# pwd
/opt/rt4/etc
# grep Column *
RT_Config.pm:=item C<$EditCustomFieldsSingleColumn>
RT_Config.pm:Set($EditCustomFieldsSingleColumn, 0);
RT_SiteConfig.pm:Set( $EditCustomFieldsSingleColumn, 1);

# cat /usr/local/bin/clean_mason.sh
rm -rf /opt/rt4/var/mason_data/obj/*
/etc/init.d/httpd restart

# /usr/local/bin/clean_mason.sh
Stopping httpd:                                            [  OK  ]
Starting httpd:                                            [  OK  ]
