i'm having an access control problem when removing an item (via WebDAV, but i suspect that's not relevant).
i'm issuing DELETE /webdav/bcm/litmus-results.txt as a regular user of my server who only has permissions on /webdav/bcm and below. DavResourceImpl calls remove() on the Item in question. somewhere below, my AccessManager is asked if read permission isGranted() on /. the answer to this question is false, and the DELETE fails with a 403.
if i then stop my server and restart it, the repository seems to be out of whack, in that PROPFIND /webdav/bcm/litmus-results.txt returns empty properties D:getlastmodified, D:getcontentlength, etc.
why is read permission checked on /? and what causes the erroneous PROPFIND response after the failed DELETE?
thanks!
oh, and another thing:
i worked around the above by granting read permission for the root node to all users, but now i'm getting an ItemNotFoundException when converting the ItemId of the deleted node to a Path. why jackrabbit is asking for permissions on the deleted node i don't know :)
