Dear Jahia core developers, I have done some more research and I think I have traced a possible cause for the problem with the 4.1.1 slide fix (but no solution yet). The users with access to our Jahia server are defined in LDAP. My user id was renamed from the id of the previous administrator.
When I checked the folder "var_jahia/content/slide/sitename" on the Jahia server, I noticed that one of the sites on which I cannot access users anymore had a ".../users/oldusername/public" folder with content in it. When I changed my user id to the name of the previous administrator (oldusername in my example), I could browse to this folder again with a WebDav client! Unfortunately, navigating to the ".../users/oldusername/public" from a Jahia file field produces an error, but before the change, the folder was not visible at all. I found this to be the case in some other inaccessible locations as well, except for one. What's different about this location is that it belongs to the only user that has a capital in the user id. Jahia is case-tolerant with respect to the user ids from LDAP. However, I tried logging in while randomly changing letters of my user id to upper case, but it has no effect. I think that the Jahia core developers should be able to reproduce the issue with this information, and I look forward to a hotfix soon :) Best regards, Max. > -----Original Message----- > From: Hirschfeld, Max [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: maandag 12 februari 2007 13:39 > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: Problem assigning rights to WebDav folder in Jahia 4.1 > > I really, really, really need a solution for my problem accessing WebDav > folders in Jahia.
