I've been having the exact same problem, and haven't been making any headway on
it, so I've gone over the FAQ to see if I can find the cause.
First, I'm running JSPWiki 2.8.1.
I have two user-ids I can access. One is defined as an administrator, the
second one isn't. I was able to verify this by logging on to both of them,
going into 'My Prefs', and clicking on the 'Profile' tab. UserA shows : Roles
- All, Authenticated; Groups - None. UserB shows : Roles - All,
Authenticated; Groups - Admin.
I am not currently able to run the SecurityConfig.jsp application (see my other
message), so I can't include the output here.
I have enabled the security log, and set the logging level to DEBUG. While I
see messages in the log each time I log in, I don't see any sort of messages in
the security when I access a new page. I'm not sure if I should expect to see
such messages, but the FAQ says to check the security log, and I don't see
anything there, other than logon messages.
I've also cleared all cookies and temporary internet files, and still get the
same problem.
Here's what I have configured in jspwiki.policy :
--------------------------------
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "All" {
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.PagePermission "*:*", "view";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"editPreferences";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"editProfile"
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*", "login";
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Anonymous" {
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Asserted" {
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Authenticated" {
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.PagePermission "*:*",
"modify,rename";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.GroupPermission "*:*", "view";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.GroupPermission
"*:<groupmember>", "edit";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"createPages,createGroups";
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.GroupPrincipal "Admin" {
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.AllPermission "*";
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Admin" {
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.AllPermission "*";
};

Subject: Re: Allow tag does not restrict access
Since we get quite a few of these questions, I started a FAQ on
Authorization:
