[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Problem with Cataloger Permissions

[Duimovich, George]

For us, this error usually comes down to setting the Org_Level unit
permissions for that individual user.
 
Retrieve Patron / User >> Other >> User Permission Editor >> then make
sure the appropriate Working Location(s) is checked off.
 
While you are in that screen, you can double check that the group
permissions for that particular user defaults to include
"VIEW_ORG_SETTINGS" as checked for the right Org Unit level.
 
I don't know for certain if this has changed from previous versions of
EG, but for some reason I thought that the permissions behaviour used to
function differently for us in 1.4 (?); namely, the Working Location may
have already been checked off in the User Permission Editor according to
your default "Home Library" in the Patron Editor's "Contact Info" tab
(then you wouldn't get this error for newly registered staff).  Then in
the 1.6 series, one had to explicity set the Working Location in the
User Permission Editor. But my recollection may be incorrect, and
perhaps it's better to explicitly set these permissions for security
reasons, etc.

Hi All,

We have Evergreen 1.6.0.1 and there is some strange error. I'm trying to
create new user with cataloger's permissions. After that I'm trying to
access Evergreen with Staff Client, but getting error:


Permission Denied: VIEW_ORG_SETTINGS (See screenshot)


There is another error windows also:



	If you encounter this alert, please inform your IT/ILS helpdesk
staff or your friendly Evergreen developers.

	Mon Sep 27 2010 17:19:07 GMT+0400 (Azerbaijan Standard Time)

	The action involved likely failed due to insufficient
permissions.  However, this part of the software needs to be updated to
better understand permission messages from the server, so please let us
know about it.

	PERM_FAILURE

	Permission Denied



I added this permission in permissions group for catalogers, but without
any effect.

Please help me.

with best regards,
Dimitri Gogelia
CTO
