[opencms-dev] OpenCms 10.5.2: files get statically exported, even though permissions are set

[Schliemann, Kai]

Hi Alex,

that was the key:

However, instead of removing permissions for the „Guest“ user you should remove the permissions for the „Guests“ group to get the desired effect.
The „Export“ user is part of the „Guests“ group.


We wrongly removed the permission for the Guest user, not the Guests group.

Thanks a lot. Problem solved.
Best regards
Kai

Kai,

as long as the „Export“ user has read permissions on a folder contents can get statically exported.
In order to prevent exporting you must remove read permissions for „Guests“.
This has not changed since forever.

However, instead of removing permissions for the „Guest“ user you should remove the permissions for the „Guests“ group to get the desired effect.
The „Export“ user is part of the „Guests“ group.

Kind regards,
Alex.

Hi Alex,

thanks a lot for your quick answer.
What I did not mention explicitly is, that there are set other permissions for custom user groups.
My understanding up to now was, that as soon as there is only just one permission set on a folder, files in this folder will never get exported. This makes sense to me because how will OpenCms check the permission of a file in the filesystem?
Is it possible, that what I was saying was true for older versions, but isn’t any  longer?
Sorry, for asking the same question again, but I would really like to understand it.

Best regards
Kai

Kai,

The static export operates with permissions of the „Export“ user, not the „Guest“ user.

Kind regards,
Alex.

Hi list,

I have a download folder in the vfs with lots of binary files like PDF and Office files. On that download folder the property „export“ is set to „true“ AND some permissions are set. One permission is „no read and no view permission for guest users“.
If I have a look in to the export folder, I can see the files from the download folder which has the above mentioned permission settings.
I always thought, that such folders never get statically exported.

Am I wrong?

Thanks fo your help in advance.

Best regards
Kai
