Hi, well I use the following code snippet in my factory method of the product I am developing. <dtml-with "manage_clone(Home, REQUEST['new_id'], REQUEST)"> <dtml-call "manage_changeProperties( company_name=REQUEST['new_company_name'], title='OS Job Tracking System für ' + REQUEST['new_company_name'] )"> <dtml-call "acl_users.manage_users(submit='Add Role', REQUEST=REQUEST)"> <dtml-call "manage_defined_roles(submit='Add Role', REQUEST=REQUEST)"> </dtml-with> I set the role element of my REQUEST object to a string, which is the name of the new role. When I look a manage_defined_roles in lib/python/AccessControl/Roles.py it searches for a submit element in the REQUEST object that has a certain value. Otherwise it calls manage_access. Well, I set submit to the required value, so that _addRole is called. Then I get the error Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: aq_acquire And when I call it without setting the parameters at all Error Type: KeyError Error Value: SCRIPT_NAME When I call it with REQUEST=REQUEST I get the first error again. Any idea what is wrong with my call? I am not using any external method or so from product, but I develop the product in Zope and use only DTML scripting, cause this is sufficient for my task. I am running Zope 2.1.4 as a standalon zserver. May be this helps too. Any hint would be really fine. Best regards, Oliver Andrich On Mon, Mar 20, 2000 at 11:03:15AM -0800, Michel Pelletier wrote:

Hi,
sofar I solved the creation process of user accounts. This was quite easy after I read the code for this. But now I have problems adding new roles via a specialized interface. I setup tghe REQUEST object correctly, then I call manage_defined_roles and I get various errors.
What kind of errors?
Is their any method at all to create Roles besides the management interface of Zope or via External Methods?
You should be able to call a method that adds roles just like the managment interface does. Have you checked out lib/python/AccessControl/access.dtml? At the bottom is a second form that lets you add roles.
