Problem setting DTR permissions

[Former Member]

Hi,

I tried to set permissions in DTR. When defining the permission at root level (http:///dtr/) with the eclipse plugin the permission editor opens.

I then grant all permissions to JDI.Administrators. When I click at the OK button nothing happens. I can click CANCEL and the dialog disappears, but the permissions are not visible in the permissions view.

The eclipse log file encloses the following error message:

java.lang.NullPointerException

How can I check if the file is checked out by another user and more interesting which file does the error message mean?

The next question: How can I then unlock the file?

I´m using:

Web AS 640 SP9

Any help is welcome

Hi,

I´ve already had a look at help.sap.com and I also do have the documentation "DTR Authentication and Authorization".

In the meantime I was successful at a SP11 NWDI but at SP9 it is still not working correctly. After restarting the SP9 server I was partly successful (I had to press the OK button of the assignment wizard twice and then the cancel button. After I´ve clicked at the column header of the permissions view the permissions were visible). Unfortunatly I didn´t activate my rights assignments and now I can´t reproduce the successful state.

Seems to be a bug. Does anyone have the same problem or a workaround?

Regards

Helmut
