Question

Edit link of a restricted page takes the restricted user to Main, by default.

• When a restricted user clicks any restricted topic of any Web, he gets the oop message as

Change Access Denied

• Here I am highlighting Main.topic name because for any topic in any Web it refers to Main Web only. It is not referring to the current Web name.
• Because of this error, the "ok" link (which takes back us to the previous page ) at the top will be ok , like a non existing topic. If the topic already exit in Main Web ,it opens the page when the user clicks "ok".
• When the user click the question mark near "ok" it takes to the edit page to create a new topic, in Main Web.

Please help me in this. I think I have cleared you, about my doubt. Thanks

Hi, If you check oopsaccesschange.tmpl in your /twiki/templates directory, check the following two lines (6 & 13, respectively):

You do not have permission to change topic <nop>%WEB%.<nop>%TOPIC%.

and:

%TMPL:DEF{"topicaction"}% [[%WEB%.%TOPIC%][OK]] %TMPL:END%

Are they identical to the lines in your tmpl file?

Thanks Jos Maccabiani,

Pardon me for late reply.

I checked both 6 & 13 th line in oopsaccesschange.tmpl,as you said. They are same as your reference.

What can I do next,please guide me, thanks.

I have the same problem ! I have restricted the edit of TestTopic2 in my Sandbox. But when the restricted user tries to edit it, he gets a message "You do not have permission to change topic Main.TestTopic2", instead of Sandbox.TestTopic2. As there is no TestTopic2 in Main, the OK button allows him to create one in Main, as mentioned by Anandkumar above

Is this because the /bin/oops script runs on Main web and not on the web the user is currently working on ? This is just a guess as I am not familiar with perl or other languages.

Please help !!

You don't say what you did to restrict edit permissions. If you denied the user "view" permission on the web, I can imagine this happening.
