Dave, do you have some feedback for us? It seems to be a very severe issue.

Thanks

Marcus

There have been a large number of reports on the Users mailing list of

previously reported here several times so I'm surfacing it as a clear
top-level thread.

I have been able to reproduce the error simply by visiting the site and
clicking on the name of any template, using an incognito Chrome window on
ChromeOS to ensure there are no statefulness issues.

I've no access to the site so can't investigate further. Can someone with
admin rights investigate please?


as you know for sure we also have no access to any webpages that are
hosted by Sourceforge. So, we cannot do anything here.

I don't know if somebody ping'ed already Sourceforge about this problem.
But I'll do it here again.

@Dave:
Please can you take over this topic? I was able to see the same "access
denied" error message by simply clicking the first link to a template
[1] after opening the template webpage [2].

Thanks in advance for your help.

>From the looks of it, this is probably a Drupal permission issue.  I can check
for any clues in the error logs tomorrow, in case its some issue with the
hosting config.

Who is an admin of the site?  Can they log in and access those pages?

Last time I looked around the Templates site, I do recall seeing some of these
as well as spam.  If I had to guess, it's junk content in the site, or the
template was simply removed.  What pages link to them?  Maybe they're just stale
links?

Re: Templates Site "Access Denied"

2017-03-02 Thread Dave Brondsema
A few bits I missed addressing on my prior email:


 I have been able to reproduce the error simply by visiting the site and
 clicking on the name of any template, using an incognito Chrome window on
 ChromeOS to ensure there are no statefulness issues.

I can't reproduce it like that.  The example link errors out, but all the
templates I find just browsing around work.

 I've no access to the site so can't investigate further. Can someone with
 admin rights investigate please?

This community should have access and should be able to maintain the site.
SourceForge users "aooadmin" and "ipv6guru" are admins of the
https://sourceforge.net/projects/aoo-templates/ project which corresponds to the
templates.openoffice.org site.  Others can be added (ideally by those 2 users,
so we at SourceForge don't have verify identities).  Documentation for web
hosting is at
https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/Project%20Web%20Services/ and I
believe should work fine for the templates site, although we have made a few
specific customizations compared to regular SourceForge project web hosting.
Same goes for aoo-extensions.
