[mapguide-users] Non-Administrator Users Can't Login

In order to use MapGuide Studio (I'm not sure about Maestro) you need the Author role to login and edit/manage resources. Author's cannot log into the Site Admin web page.

Administrator has full rights.

Having neither of the two roles the login is just a user and has permissions on resources as dictated by the permissions in Site Explorer in Studio (or Maestro).

Regards,
Dave

You can manage users from the MapAdmin:
http://localhost/mapguide/mapadmin/login.php

These users can then log in to MapGuide.

You need to set their permissions to resources
with a tool like Maestro or Studio.

There are no execute permissions in MapGuide, only read and write.
The permission system is not really documented, and works the opposite of what I expected.
Search the mailing lists for details.

Hi Mauricio,

Could you please be so kind as to explain, in detail, what these permissions are?  Currently, I have set up a test account and a user account on the workstation with read and execute permissions.  Unfortunately, there is no mention in the documentation of what permissions users need to access this.

Cheers,
Dennis

You need to set the right permissions of the repository folders.

Hi,

I've created a test user, assigned it to a "mapauthors" group I created, which assigns the user to the "Authors" role.  When I attempt to login as this user, I get an "Authentication failed.  Please enter a valid username and password.  The following message is in the error log:

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?  I'm running the bundled Apache on Windows 2003 Server with a PHP development environment.

Cheers,
Dennis
