Hi Stephano, it's normal behaviour that anonymous users cannot upload into the repository. You probably had your DSpace 1.8 repository set up in a different way and those users were not anonymous. How did you do the migration to DSpace 3? Did you reuse the database? If you did, the the users, groups and permissions should remain the same. If you did a fresh installation, they weren't preserved and you need to set them up again. It's not necessary to give them administrator rights. You can simply give them the right to submit to a particular collection. In XMLUI, log in as administrator, go to that collection, click on Edit Collection, then on the Assign Roles tab and create a group of submitters, this will be called e.g. COLLECTION_1_SUBMIT. Now next to "Search members to add:" click on "Groups..." and add the "Anonymous" group as a member of the COLLECTION_1_SUBMIT group. Repeat this for all collections where you want to allow anonymous submissions.
