Hi
I am on 6.2.2 zip install on ubuntu and all is working BUT NOT THE folder security
All users with ROLE_ADMIN can see all folders under okm:personal
BUT users with ANY other roles can ONLY see their own personal folder.
  • U can not add the ROLE_USER to any folder from the UI so I added it from the DB side to the okm:personal folder and to a sub folder, I then can see the permissions from the UI and change them etc with the okmAdmin user logged on but if the standard user with ONLY ROLE_USER log on then - No luck
  • I then ALSO added the user to okm:personal and subfolder with full permissions - BUT No luck
  • I added a ROLE_PowerUser to the system and added this ROLE_PowerUser to the user, okm:personal and subfolder - BUT No luck
Any other Ideas

I think I have successfully solved my problem BUT it should (I think) be classed as a bug.
If the ROLE_ADMIN is not assigned and you have any other ROLES like ROLE_USER then you need to make sure the PROFILE has ONLY Stack PERSONAL and TRASH ticked, if you tick any other STACK then you will experience this mentioned problem.

I understand that the "STACK" tick should not have a play in the Access of folders and that the ROLES should be the deciding factor but this is my findings and they are true.
