Re: [Dspace-tech] Setting authorization to add bitstreams
I have a better understanding of what you were talking about now. We have items that have an old photo, which we want to delete, and a new photo, which we want to upload. One staff member, can upload the new photo, as long as they don't delete the old photo first. If they delete the old photo, they UI says that they need ADD and WRITE permissions for this bundle. From what I can tell, the user has all the permissions for the bundle with the old photo, but as soon as that photo is deleted, so is the bundle, and so are their permissions. But they still have all the permissions for the item itself. And the permissions don't seem to cascade down. So, I have a few questions: 1. Does anyone know any particular way to fix/work around this? 2. Could this be considered a bug? 3. We're on 1.4.2. For anyone using 1.5, does the same thing happen? Thanks Jennifer Territory Stories Administrator Northern Territory Library We just had a similar problem to this, and I found that by using the wildcard authorisation tool, if I set WRITE, ADD, and REMOVE permissions on both the items and bitstreams for the particular collection, that the user was able to add bitstreams. Perhaps if you don't care about the user deleting bitstreams, you don't need to worry about the REMOVE permissions though. Jennifer Territory Stories Administrator Northern Territory Library We have a DSpace 1.4.2 setup with a custom Web interface. There is a group of users who have permission to Add and Write in a collection. They are able to add new records with metadata, but they cannot add new bitstreams. When they try to add bitstreams, they get an error message saying Authorization denied for action ADD on ITEM:50 by user 9. Members of the Administrators group can add both metadata and bitstreams, so that action is possible. In looking at the Authorization settings for a collection, I see DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ, but I do not see options for bitstream Add or Write. Any suggestions? Thanks, Bob Robert A.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Setting authorization to add bitstreams
Jennifer, Thanks for the suggestion, but it works only for items already in the collection at the time I applied the new wildcard authorization. I got the same error when I tried to add a new item with a bitstream.
