Portal Content Object not displayed

[Former Member]

Hi SDN,

I am facing a strange problem. My users are not able to see the Porttal Content page. As an EP administrator i am view the same.

They are getting the following error:

An exception occurred while processing a request for :

iView : N/A

Component Name : N/A

Access denied (Object(s): portal_content/com.sap.pct/administrator/

content_admin/iviews/com.sap.portal.contentCatalogTreeContent).

Exception id: 01:34_22/07/05_0271_2716250

See the details for the exception ID in the log file

This text is also displayed when i try to edit the Permissions for the Portal Content object: Permissions for this object were modified; the object no longer inherits permissions.

How to … Secure Permissions for Initial Content in SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0 SP2 December 2004

2.4. Long-Term Maintenance of Security Zone Permissions

After you have correctly set the initial permissions to the various security zones, as described in the previous

section, the portal should be secure from any unauthorized access by direct URL.

Important:

The settings provided in this document only cover the standard administration roles (super-,

content-, system-, user administrator) shipped with the initial portal content. As you create new

custom roles or modify the pre-configure roles, you need to adjust the permission assignments to

the security zones.

If a user is denied access to a portal component due to lack of security-zone authorization, he or she will

typically receive the following error notification at runtime in the portal:

Figure 2: Runtime error message indicating lack of permissions in a security zone

The name of the portal component and the relevant security zone are both listed in the error notification. If you

determine that the user indeed requires permanent access to the respective portal component, you should

assign the user access to the appropriate security zone (by role, group, or user name).
