Hi, thanks for the hint, I looked at the log file while viewing a report (not 
logged in) and discovered that fine-grained permissions (authZ policy file) was 
denying access... Which jogged my memory, that I was even using fine-grained 
permissions, and that this policy file overrides permissions set in any other 
way. So, a small tweak to the authZ policy file, and presto! Anonymous users 
can reach a report link. Yay! The reverse proxy works, too.

In the end, to make my script work, I found a user needs BROWSER_VIEW and 
BUILD_VIEW. Two seemingly unrelated permissions. Not an answer to your 
question, but I hope it helps. For you, I would turn on logging to a file, and 
set your logging to debug mode. Then, using a tool like 'tail' watch what 
happens when you try to read your RSS feeds... The log should spit back failed 
permissions (hopefully) and the like... That's how I find my permission issues 
anyways...

Good luck!

Alas, it's been a month and no response... I'm wondering if I might try the 
latest version of Trac, cross my fingers and hope?

Hi, I asked this in IRC but didn't get a response, thought I'd try on the mail 
list instead. I've got a Trac 0.12.2 instance, running on RHEL 6, installed 
from packages on EPEL. I'm attempting to allow unprivileged access to RSS 
feeds. I've got <http://oursite/project/report> http://oursite/project/report 
reverse proxied to <https://oursite/project/report> 
https://oursite/project/report, but Trac is throwing the following error: 
REPORT_VIEW privileges are required to perform this operation. I've confirmed 
that anonymous has the REPORT_VIEW privilege set... scratching my head... I've 
confirmed that the same error is thrown on the https version of the site, if 
you're not logged in. So, the reverse proxy isn't an issue here. Anonymous 
users *should* be able to view reports on our site, bur are not able to.

Any ideas?
