[opencms-dev] Acces Denied Error

[Kevin Hyde]

I'm also new to OpenCMS(ver 5.x.x), and I have run into this problem as
well.  I cannot provide good explanation as to how to correct this, but I
would suggest that you take a look at "Change Owners", "Change Groups", and
"Change Permissions".  By manipulating these values, you can usually correct
access-errors.  You'll probably need to be logged-in as "admin" to do this.


I don't think these access-errors point to bugs in OpenCMS, but rather they
point to a lack of understanding of how a site should be setup.  What I mean
is, who(adminstrator, projectmanager, etc) should create folders, templates,
jsp's, etc, such that permissions to those objects are properly assigned.
If this is understood and the site setup properly, then users(i.e.
content-editors, etc) won't get errors when trying to work with their tasks.
I have read some documentation on the basics of permissions, but nothing yet
that answers the question "How do I use this to build my site?", or "What
are some strategies to use when building my site?".  And so I am "stumbling"
alot too.  

Thx,
Kevin

Hi All.

I'm new in OpenCMS. 

When I try to follow
the tutorial steps to learn how to edit
an existing project, I receive the message:
"Access Denied" (not enough rights to 
edit the project). 

Can anyone help me ???

Cheers,
Fred.
