Forum OpenACS Q&A: File-Storage Permissions

Hi all,

is it possible to configure the permissions in file-storage
in the way that users can create new items but only manage their own items (modify,delete)?

File storage should already work this way :). Check how the permissions are set in your system. One problem is that the legacy file-storage 5.0 did not use create privilege, only write, so there was no way to tell the difference between create new objects or edit existing object.

I thought I had changed it to use "create" in the 5.1 version, but I don't know if its practical to change the pemissions on existing objects.
