Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

ModifySelf right produces "Permission Denied": msg#00067

Subject: ModifySelf right produces "Permission Denied"

Hi All,

My apologies for posting this here in addition to rt-users, but I'm beginning to be pretty convinced that this is a bug rather than a configuration problem.

Can anyone else reproduce this with their setup?

Ian,

Hi all,

I've granted the ModifySelf right to System group Everyone and I'm
getting some odd behaviour.

I can change my password and all my details within the preferences page
and the database gets updated. The problem is that it gives me a
"Permission Denied" error, even though it has succeeded.

If I grant the right explicitly to a user and remove it from Everyone,
it still gives the same problem.

I'm seeing a similar problem with personal groups, in that everyone is
granted AdminOwnPersonalGroups which they can do, but there's a
Permission Denied error - even though the edits happen.

I've enabled debugging in my RT_SiteConfig.pm but it's not showing
anything unusual:

[Mon Mar 14 14:30:54 2005] [debug]: About to think about scrips for
transaction #6335
(/usr/local/packages/rt-3.4.1/lib/RT/Transaction_Overlay.pm:154)

I'm using RT 3.4.1 on Fedora Core 3 with Postgres 7.4.7.
DBD::Pg is version 1.31
DBIx::SearchBuilder is version 1.22

The only time I don't get errors on updating users details is if I do it
with a SuperUser enabled account.

Any suggestions gratefully received as I'm not having any luck tracking
this one down :(

Thanks, Ian.
