RE: [Zope] Newbie Question (Content Manager Tutorial)

2000-08-21 Thread Steve Drees

 With the advent of Zope 2.2, the first thing you need to do is to create a
 management user.  You cannot use the 'superuser' to manage content.  I
 know this is a little unfamiliar, but, for now, just suspend disbelief and
 create another user with the 'Manager' role (by visiting the acl_users
 User Folder and adding a user).  Then quit the browser, and log in as the
 user you created.  You'll then be able to follow the cmg.


Couldn't the zope install be modified to prompt for a 'Manager' username and
password
and then create that account from the outset?

Darn.  Those docs are a little ( ok, a lot...) out of date.  They're
still useful, but they don't cover a few things.

Can anyone remind me why?

T0he problems it's caused, particularly with broswers caching basic auth
info, seem to be pretty nasty for newbies (and a few oldbies ;-)

cheers,

You are working as superuser.
While this *did* work up to Zope 2.1.6, since Zope 2.2 the
security model was tightened.

You must (as superuser) create a user with manage privilege,
restart your browser and use that user to create objects.

HTH,
Jan

See (sneak peek) http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/PDG/6-1-Security.stx,
section named "The Superuser".

I hope to have this chapter really finished this weekend.

The Content Manager Guide still describes the world
before Zope 2.2.

For some reason (that I do not understand), DC descided
that, starting with Zope 2.2.0, the SuperUser is no
longer Super but instead rather limited. He cannot own objects
and therefore, he cannot create objects.

What you need to do:

  As SuperUser go to "acl_users".
  Create a new user with a role of "Manager".
  Close your browser (all windows!).
  Recontact Zope (in a fresh browser!) as your newly created
  Manager.
  Use this manager, whenever your guide speaks of "SuperUser".
