This error is logically impossible; the code first checks for the existence of 
the file before trying to open it. You must have some kind of permissions 
problem.

I'll need more detailed log output - see the Wiki on how to get it.

Caused by a misnamed variable at line 223-225 of configmanager.py. If you 
change the offending lines to this:

    shutil.move(CONFIG_FILE_OLD, CONFIG_FILE_OLD + "-0.5x")
    infile = open(CONFIG_FILE_OLD + "-0.5x", 'rb')
    outfile = open(CONFIG_FILE_OLD, 'wb')

That should correct the problem.
