Jennifer, Thanks for the suggestion, but it works only for items already in the collection at the time I applied the new wildcard authorization. I got the same error when I tried to add a new item with a bitstream.

Perhaps if you don't care about the user deleting bitstreams, you don't need to worry about the REMOVE permissions though. Jennifer Territory Stories Administrator Northern Territory Library 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 Robert A.
