4.2 removing security from dimension

[Former Member]

We currently have a dimension in a 4.2 application that was mistakenly set up as a secure dimension. We have tried using the Manage Dimensions fuctionality to unselect it then processed both the dimension and saved the application yet this doesn't seem to do anything.

Is this possible? Are we missing a step(s)?

Thanks.

Was the dimension appset secured (so was security checked in the dimension itself?) or application secured (so was security checked in the manage applications screen of 4.2?). if it is removed in both screens then make sure you remove all the entries in your security sheet, since you have to do that manually in 4.2. Also process the dimensions and save the application. If this doesn't work check if there is still a table starting with the name ACS in the database for the secured dimension that shouldn't be secured and check into the tbldimension if there is still a security setting for your dimension in this table. If so try to change it here, but of course I would rather do it via the eAdmin menu.

Hope this helps!

Hi Mike,

I have tried the following,

Using Manage applications tab, I went to modify Application, unsecured the dimension and processed the Application. Changes were reflected to the application and the memberAccess profile even was changed for me.

Hope this helps,
