[opencms-dev] Permissions issue

[Noz, Felix]

Hi,

did you explicitly set the denied flag for a group? If so OpenCms infact denies the right for any user that belongs to this group. So instead setting the denied flag for the second group you can leave this flag unset and explicitly set the Allowed flag for the first group. When you also set the Overwrite inherited option the first group should have the permission on the resource where the second one shouldn't.
To set the permissions programatically have a look at

org.opencms.file.CmsObject#chacc()

and

org.opencms.security.CmsAccessControlEntry

Greetings
Felix

Betreff: [opencms-dev] Permissions issue


Hi,
I have a difficult situation with permission settings in OpenCms. I have 2 groups to control access to pages. The first group is allowed to edit a page while the second is banned.

The problem is, I have some users in both the groups. Since OpenCms handle permission in Exclusive way, the users in both group cannot edit the page.
Is there any body know how to solve this? If I want to set the permission in Java classes, what class should I look for?

Thank you

Huy
