Some progress. I managed to get it work by de-selecting the "Manager" role on the Proxy roles. Makes absolutely no sense. Later today I had another similar problem/error and nothing I changed on the Proxy roles mattered. I ended up replacing the Python Scipt with an External Method and that worked. This absolutely sucks. The DCWorkflow code is incredibly complicated and obscure and I hope it burns in hell. Having said that, I don't think I would do any better if I was to replicate what it can do :) 2008/7/1 Peter Bengtsson <peter@fry-it.com>:
First of all, I'm not sure if this is the right mailing list but hopefully the DCWorkflow people read this list too.
I've got a strange problem. On my laptop it works (zope 2.7.8) on the live server it works (zope 2.7.3) but on the test server (2.7.8) it doesn't!!! And it's the same Data.fs and Products as the live server. It throws an Unauthorized error upon executing a python script as part of a workflow transition. The Error:
The owner of the executing script is defined outside the context of the object being accessed. The script has proxy roles, but they do not apply in this context.. Access to 'workflow' of (Products.DCWorkflow.Expression.StateChangeInfo instance at 0xddffb48) denied. Access requires Manage_portal_Permission, granted to the following roles: ['Manager']. The executing script is (PythonScript at /intranet/portal_workflow/intranet_workflow/scripts/wf_script_despatcher), owned by oliver.
The Python script has Proxy role "Manager" so how can it be limited?
I didn't write this CMF based application and I want to get on top of it so it doesn't happen again.
