Repeating Region Won't Repeat--Permissions?

[checkersam]

I'm having a problem with a repeating region that refuses to repeat. When I try
to click the "+" button in the repeating region via Contribute, I get an error:
"You can't add items to repeating regions because the draft's parent template
is missing or not available to users in your role."

I read somewhere that permissions maybe the problem as well as the location of
the related template file. I have the template file located in a standard
Template folder in the same directory as the file in question with the
repeating region. As a second insurance step, the same template file lives in
the root level Template folder too.

Also, I don't know how to change Passkey permissions for users in certain
roles other than allowing text editing. There's nothing in the Passkey admin
dialogue that is specific to repeating regions.

What's more, I have successfully set up a repeating region page in a different
directory with a similar Passkey config. The difference is the template. The
page I'm trying to make work is based on a site-wide master page template and
the older working repeating region page was based on a custom template.
Regardless, the Dreamweaver code for repeating regions is almost identical so I
don't really get the problem.

Any help is much appreciated!

I am having a similar problem with a page here

Its happening on both my user account adn on the Admin account i have set up
for testing. It also seems odd becuase contribute in both roles was able to
see the template in order to create a page ( and on creation i was able to '+'
add as many as i liked. However as soon as i try to re - enter the page to
edit it a second time on either account i get the error listed above

I was able to correct the problems on my page by editing the tag

<!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/commercial.dwt"
codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->

at the top of the web page. What mine was originally doing was pointing
with a full web address. Even when this address was to the correct file path
contribute was not biting. By taking it down to the form shown above my
contribute user accounts and admin accounts were able to proced as normal.

I noticed also that the above correct fomrat was the way dreamweaver
creates the page from template, yet the malfuncitoning full path name was
how contribute created the new web page.

Hopefully that might help
