[support] Drupal permissions

Hello,

I tried to make a copy of my Drupal site for testing, but I can't get 
the test site to work. This is what I've done:

1) I made a copy of the database (let's call it test_db).
2) I made a copy of the Drupal directory and changed settings.php to 
point to test_db.

I can navigate to the new Drupal site, but all the nodes give me "access 
denied". I can login, I can create new pages, and the new pages I create 
  work fine (no "access denied") but the old pages just won't work.

I tried following the instructions here:

http://www.tech4him.com/content/drupal-access-denied-permission-are-correct

No luck.

If I change settings.php in the test site to point to the old database, 
the site works fine. So the problem seems to be something in the new 
database, but I can't imagine what.

Does anyone have any ideas? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Daniel.
