Re: [Zope] user permissions

2000-07-25 Thread J. Michael Mc Kay

I just installed 2.2.  I read that the superuser account cannot edit or add
objects so I set up a user as manager and one as an owner.  The user
accounts are able to add objects but only the superuser account can see them
once they are added.

EX:
I am logged in as user Mike and add  edit a DTML Document.  I complete the
edit and choose change. When I'm returned to the contents the new document
is
not visible.  If I now log in as the superuser, everything is visible but,
of course, cannot be moved, added to, or copied and pasted.

So my question is "What have I not done correctly to have created this catch
22 situation.?"

 No, that should do it.  You cannot add, copy or move objects as the
 superuser, but you can add users to a user folder and change
 permissions.  But there should be no permissions that need changing.
 Make sure that you give the user the 'Manager' role when you add a new
 user (while logged in as superuser).

I've never heard of anything like this.

What roles does "Mike" have?  What *does* show up in the Contents screen
for "Mike"?

RE: [Zope] user permissions

2000-07-25 Thread Webmaster

My installation is on RH Linux, however it sounds to me like you are having
the same problem.

I am no longer having the problem and the voodoo I doodood to get it working
seems like a bad dream now.

I created a simple user name "bob" and a one character password (I'm pretty
sure it was "1"). I then closed and reopened Netscape and logged in as "bob"
and it worked. I then created a second "manager" username and gave it a
regular password and it work like it should have the first time. 

Of course all this happened after trying every conceivable incarnation of
usernames and passwords (two and three character passwords did NOT work),
stomping around my office, slamming doors and cursing everyone on the list
that did not answer my postS ;-) 

Hope this helps!!

Jamey

Re: [Zope] user permissions

2000-07-25 Thread J. Michael Mc Kay

Sounds stupido, but I logged on to zope today as the user and can see and do
all.  I really don't get it.  I tried over and over yesterday to get things
working to no avail.  Today, without having logged in previously I added
products.Zcommerce and Session.  Restarted Zope.
I just recieved your mail so I decided to go through all the motions again
from yesterday to tell you exactly what I was doing.  I log in and it is
working fine.

Doh
