Forum OpenACS Q&A: Press Package

1: Press Package

Posted by Gilbert Price on 01/10/03 11:18 PM

I just installed the press Package into my OACS 4.6 testing machine. When I go to my /press directory I get a Permission Denied "You do not have permission to access this page. ".

I am the site-wide-admin. As I am aware of custom permissions in some modules/packages, I went to my /permissions directory and tried to add press permissions to myself. There are no selections of that sort available.

I then added myself with explicit admin, create, read, write, delete persmissions under Press Permissions, restarted my server. I still get the Permission Denied page.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,

Hi Gilbert,

It looks like Press was never ported to PG. Unfortunately, the .info file reports that it has PG support, so that's why it shows up in your list of packages to install. Fixing that now.

I'm not sure, but I think that ETP can be used to recreate Press functionality. Someone smart please respond 😊

Thanks Vinod for posting a reply.

That explains it perfectly...

I'll delve into ETP deeper, I just set up a site at work that uses etp at the www level so I do have some room to play.

Thanks,
