Description

Describe the bug...

• had 1.2.x running with acl and two pages AdminGroup and WikiEditorGroup everything worked fine.

• some time ago: upgraded from 1.x to 1.3.1 and found everything working.

  • Today wanted to add another user to WikiEditorGroup and no access was granted (But old users had access.)

  • even appended user to AdminGroup but no access.

• So installed 1.3.3 but did not help either.

• setup: MoinMoin 1.3.3

  • wikiconfig.py

        allowed_actions = ['AttachFile']
        acl_enabled = 1    
        acl_rights_before = u"AdminGroup:admin,read,write,delete,revert"
        acl_rights_after = u"All:read"
        acl_rights_default = u"WikiEditorGroup:read,write,delete,revert,admin All:read"
        page_group_regex = u'[a-z]Group$'

    • i also tried page_group_regex = u'.*Group$' but it didn't help.

    • it works if i put my username in acl_rights_before but i don't want to do this for every user!

  • AdminGroup and WikiEditorGroup as described in HelpOnAccessControlLists

  • In MoinMoinQuestions it is mentioned to upgrade to 1.3.3 but that i did.

Steps to reproduce

1. ???

Example

Details

Workaround

• Punch each user name into wikiconfig.py

Discussion

• Try to edit the group page and see if it is respected afterwards.
  • Editing the page didn't help.
  • I removed all users from the pace saved it.
  • Then placed them back in.
  • Now it works.

  • any idea why? -- MatthiasMohr 2005-03-01

    • There was a bug in 1.3.1 which corrupted the cache files. You have to rebuild them in order to get it right.

      • 1) how to rebuild cache? HelpOnUpdatinPython -> Empty Page cache ?

        • See the original bug report: ../AclChangesNotAlwaysAccepted

      • 2) why not post that in HelpOnAccessControlLists

        • Feel free to add it.

          • Immutable Page !

            • Read EditingOnMoinMaster

              • done.
