[Zope] RE: calling getOwner on an ExtFile instance raises an Unauthori zed ex ception

[Palermo, Tom]

Tres,

Thanks. I didn't know about that. I will try that. Also, I just used
owner_info['id'] instead of getOwner(). It returns the same thing. I'm not
sure why owner_info worked and getOwner did not both methods are in
AccessControl.Owner.py

Thanks,
Tom

TUrn on verbose security in your zope.conf and retry;  you should get a lot
more information about why the security machinery is blocking access in the
error log.
