 * “You setup fopen as download type for file at the User Access Manager settings,
   but for this option safe_mode=off is required. Please change the settings”
 * I get this message while I have no idea where I can change either of the two 
   mentioned settings. Yet, the functionality remained: basically, it works.

 * If you click on “Settings” under the UAM tab, you will see a section titled “
   File settings”. Select “yes” for Lock files and an option will appear to change
   download type to normal. Save this configuration (yes,normal). After saving, 
   you can revert the Lock files to No and save. The message will disappear
