Open Source Document Management System | OpenKM

Hi,

I have check-out the source code of openKM and configured it with SQL server 2005, but facing following problems:

Problem1: When i log into openkm using default AdminRol user \'admin\' administration tab is displayed, but when clicked on \'Administration\' tab, it\'s displaying couldnt find index.html page.What could be the problem?

Problem2:I have added a new user with AdminRol to openKm, when i log into OpenKM using newly created AdminRol user, administration tab is not shown at all.

]problem1:
Which browser are you using ? have you got older Openkm installation, some proxy ( try to clean browser cache -> sometimes it does problems ).
can you see the uri when you\'re connected as admin : http://yourhost:8080/OpenKM/es.git.open ... index.html (really frontend uses a iframe to load it ).

Problem2:
Only admin user has administration grants, althought you set adminrol to other users it\'ll has no effect. We\'ve decided that only it\'ll be a super user on OpenKM an is called mandatory as \"admin\", is a restriction ( It could be confusing, I\'m agree with you ), really assigning adminrol to other users is like you assign, has same effects to users than other roles.

Can any one tell me please how to change the default password for admin.

Thanks.

Is this behaviour gonna change in future versions of OpenKM? In other words, will it ever be possible to assign that \'super user\' role to normal users?

It could be, but we think it\'s better only one user - person - has grants to operate with super user. When you operate as super user, really has all control about OpenKM repository because you go over security credentials.

And we think it\'s better for any system, that might be only one user with super user grants.

You could create other grant to General purpose asociated to some users to take control of all repository. But super users differences from it that OpenKM goes over security credentials, it\'s similar idea as \"root\" user on linux ( that in general must not be do operation with this ).
