[LON-CAPA-admin] problem with exam upload in DOCS

Hello,
I've got a very strange problem. I imported a published document (an
exam upload problem) into DOCS in the Main Course Documents area. I
uploaded the scores without any problems. Then the professor for
which I was doing this found 3 errors in the key he used to correct
the problem. So, I figured what I'd do was to make a new problem
(exam upload type again), and then upload the corrected scores to
this problem.
However, when I remove the problem from DOCS (or hide it) and import
the new problem it won't show up in the NAV menu--all I see is the
old problem (even after deleting the folder and problem). But it is
definitely visible if I go through the DOCS menu. While in DOCS if I
click on the new problem I get a message:
LON-CAPA Access Control
Access : Browse resources
Resource: /res/ndsu/physics/ExamUpload/
Exam1_Scores_PHYS211_corrected.problem
Action : Invalid Access
What's really irritating/confusing me is that if I log in as a
student I can see the new problem in my NAV menu, but when I click on
it I get the same error message as shown above.
I've tried:
1. Re-initializing the course after every time I delete the problem
and if I import the new one
2. A different browser (same behavior with Firefox or Safari)
3. Re-publishing the problem.
I feel I should mention that, for this new problem I wrote to upload
the corrected test scores, I just copied and pasted the XML
code...but the problem has a different name
(Exam1_Scores_PHYS211.problem vs.
Exam1_Scores_PHYS211_corrected.problem). I also should mention that
if I click on the old problem I don't get a PGRD button in my remote.
I'm thoroughly confused and would greatly appreciate any help. It's
driving me nuts.
