Folder Permissions

  • I added a usaer as a content manager using windows authentication, but he still can't see teh sub folders. All he sees is the Header on the default Reports page. I had to temorarily give him admin rights on the server, but as you know this is not a good work-around.

    What am I missing in the settings for this user?

  • There are two things you could try ask the person to add Report manager url in Lan Settings in connection in IE or trusted sites. If that did not work they may have to disable protected mode Vista and Windows 7 don't like it.

    Kind regards,

  • Thank you for taking the time to respond. I'll have the user check to see if the server is in the trusted security group. His machine is on the network just like mine and should have the same group policies, but you never know.

  • To see a list of the top-level folders and associated user permissions, run the following:

    select

    name,

    path,

    username

    from

    catalog

    join policies on

    catalog.policyid = policies.policyid

    join policyuserrole on

    policyuserrole.policyid = policies.policyid

    join users on

    policyuserrole.userid = users.userid

    where

    parentID = (select itemid from catalog where parentid is null)

    order by

    path,

    username

    Or, you may refer to the url below:

  • Thanks for the syntax. That will be very useful.

  • I think it's all figured out. I hadn't given the user browser rights to the root folder. Once that was done it all worked.
