Problems with anonymous access to MetaPublisher 1.2.8 (Elliot Clifton)

Thanks. Problem solved! I'd been looking at the wrong permissions. Turns out I that was questioning the generic "view" permission (which was acquired anyway). While MetaPublisher uses specific permissions as filters to determine which aspects of the published content are accessible. Setting the MP specific permissions fixes the problem. Shame this wasn't made a bit in the MP tutorial. Elliot On Monday, Jan 13, 2003, at 18:55 Europe/London, Dieter Maurer wrote:

I'm running Zope 2.5.1 on Linux, and I'm having trouble with the MetaPublisher 1.2.8 product. When I try to access meta publisher objects anonymously through the web, I get the following error message:

Error Type: Unauthorised Error Value: You are not allowed to access entryIds in this context.

I was following the product's tutorial when the error first occurred. What is the point in a publishing product that prevents the site visitors from seeing the published content? If this is a bug, then it's probably a fundamental flaw.

So, what am I doing wrong? Apparently, the implementers of some product decided that "entryIds" should be protected by a permission and "Anonymous" does not have it.

You must give "Anonymous" the necessary permission or use a proxy role. Read the 2.6 edition of the Zope Book (--> Zope.org), for details.
