We just had a similar problem to this, and I found that by using the wildcard
authorisation tool, if I set WRITE, ADD, and REMOVE permissions on both the
items and bitstreams for the particular collection, that the user was able to
add bitstreams. Perhaps if you don't care about the user deleting bitstreams,
you don't need to worry about the REMOVE permissions though.

We have a DSpace 1.4.2 setup with a custom Web interface. There is a group of
users who have permission to Add and Write in a collection. They are able to add
new records with metadata, but they cannot add new bitstreams. When they try to
add bitstreams, they get an error message saying "Authorization denied for
action ADD on ITEM:50 by user 9".

Members of the Administrators group can add both metadata and bitstreams, so
that action is possible.

In looking at the Authorization settings for a collection, I see
DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ, but I do not see options for bitstream Add or Write.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Bob
