Title: Query User Group not able to run reports from report views
Post by: bpothier on 08 Jul 2013 01:35:01 PM
for some reaon the Query Users Group cannot run a report unless it is the native report....they see all report views as broken links - this seems to have happened after we installed patch 10.1.1. The weird thing is Consumers and all other groups we use are fine and can run report views perfectly. I have gone in and looked at everything I could think of and they are all the same permissions, properties and capabalilites as they always have been and they are all set as they should be.

has anyone else seen this?

have you checked the permissions on the root of Public Folders? It's possible this group may have a deny capability checked?

Capabilities is set top everyone and the permision are Execute, Read and traverse as are the others who are able to run the report views.

it is very weird

Even though Read, Traverse and Execute are granted to the Everyone group at the top level, there may be a lower level folder where one of the capabilities is explicitly denied for this particular group? Deny overrides grant. I can only suggest you look through the folder permissions and the capabilities in the Admin Console to see if you can spot the issue. Sorry - I know it's like looking for a needle in a haystack :-)
