[Geoserver-users] configuring user access roles

Ricardo_Manuel_Batal · October 20, 2014, 1:46pm

Hello.

First of all I’d like to say that I’m a complete noob to geoserver, and my function in the geoserver, is “simply” administering it.

So this is general information of my GeoServer:

Build Information

Version 2.1-SNAPSHOT

Subversion Revision -1

Build Date 24-May-2012 21:47

GeoTools Version 2.7-SNAPSHOT (rev -1)

What’s my problem:

Last week I defined UserRoles and DataSecurityRules in order to protect workspaces from different users.

The problem is that last, week user, geo_user1, had the possibility to, when in geoexplorer mode, select different workspaces when he was uploading layers, but now the workspace dropbox appears empty. The user geo_user1 had administration privileges before I made this modification.

Can you help me in fiding out how can I create this kind of permission so that I can allow this user to select the different workspaces and stores?

I’ve read the manual but couldn’t find anything on this kind permission

Thank you very much for your time.

Regards,

Ricardo Vilhena

*Build Information*

Version 2.1-SNAPSHOT

You should seriously consider an upgrade of GeoServer, as your release is
really old. Currently is 2.6, with 2.5.x still supported.

Cheers,

Stefano

Hi Ricardo

Please follow the advice of Stefano, the security subsystem has changed significantly since 2.1.

Due to limited time, it is not possible to investigate in problems occurring in outdated versions.

Cheers
