Access Denied in Document Manager (MOSS)

[Ulf]

Hi Support,

We are using SharePoint 2007 SP2 and RadEditor 5.8 with .NET 3.5 AJAX configured.

Imagine this site structure: our-company.com/knowledge/wiki
The User has read permissions on /knowledge and contribute on /knowledge/wiki. On both sites are publishing features activated.
We get an access denied when trying to upload a document to the wiki site via the document manager.
When granting the user contribute to /knowledge too it works fine.

Note: when uploading with the Image Manager to the same site and document library, it works even with the read permissions on /knowledge.

Regards
Ulf

Hello Ulf,

Both ImageManager and DocumentManager use the same content provider for viewing, uploading and deleting files. The only thing that differs is the extensions of the managed files. In order to upload or delete files you need at least contribute permissions for the current library an all its parents.

Hi Stanimir,

Thanks for the quick reply. We found a (strange) solution for the problem:
When we add the Document Manager to the toolbar, it works fine. When we remove the Document Manager from the toolbar and only access it via Link Manager, we get access denied.
Putting the Document Manager on the toolbar works for us, but its a little bit strange ... :)

Regards
Ulf

BTW: Your service is great!

Hi Ulf,

Could you provide me with your ConfigFile.xml and your ListConfigFile.xml, which are located in the /Program Files/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/web server extensions/wpresources/RadEditorSharePoint/5.x.x.0__1f131a624888eeed/Resources/ folder? I need to run one more test and these file will make it more accurate.

Thank you.

 Adding <tool name="DocumentManager" /> to the config file did the trick.

Hello Ulf,

Thank you for the provided information. It was very helpful. Indeed the problem is when the DocumentManager is used though the LinkManager and you set the path without starting / such as:

<property name="DocumentsPaths">
    ...
    <item>Documents</item>
    ...
</property>

I logged the issue in our bug-traking system, so we will work on fixing it.
