[Dspace-tech] Authorisation problem wtih collection level admin

2007-12-20 Thread Jeffrey Trimble
I've given a staff member Collection Level authorization.  They were  
not able to
add additional bitstreams to a committed record already in the IR.   
After giving
them this level of authorization, they are still not able to add  
additional bitstreams.


I'm running 1.4.1 release and cannot see any problem with this.  They
receive the screen that informs them to contact the administrator for
permission. But they have it.

Is there something I am missing here?

TIA,

Jeff

Jeff -

I've seen this as well.  I'm new enough to DSpace/Manakin that I wasn't 
sure if that was the expected behavior, or if the staff member should 
indeed be able to add the items.

We investigated a little bit, and if I recall correctly, it was only 
happening with the Manakin inteface.  The default DSpace interface did 
not have this problem.

If it's the same issue on your end, maybe we should open a bug report on 
this so that the issue is tracked and clarified or resolved.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Authorisation problem wtih collection level admin

2007-12-20 Thread Keith Gilbertson
I'm sorry.  The problem that I'm thinking of happens when a person with 
write authorization on a community tries to add a subcommunity or a 
collection to that community.

Just out of curiosity, Jeff, what happens when you give the staff member 
full authorizations on the specific item and the bundles in the item?


There's a bit in the Dspace Overview documentation 
(http://www.dspace.org/index.php?option=com_contenttask=viewid=149) 
which says that permissions don't commute:

Permissions must be explicit - lack of an explicit permission results 
in the default policy of 'deny'. Permissions also do not 'commute'; for 
example, if an e-person has READ permission on an item, they might not 
necessarily have READ permission on the bundles and bitstreams in that 
item.

I'm wondering if you have to give the staff member full permissions on 
the items and bundles, as well.
